EDIT: on a SERIOUS note however on WEP, I have worked on MANY routers that simply do not have enough power(literally) or processing power to use WPA+/WPA2... its sad... but as long as you have a router from the last 2-3 years you should be fine... i had to give up an old Linksys tho... couldn't handle 3 PC's on WPA2... Q_Q

FYI: Hacking a network that doesn't broadcast it's SSID is even easier than one that does but has WEP.

If your router is so old that it can't do even WPA, you really ought to look for a new one. They are not that expensive.

WEP is that bad.
