Wi-Fi Protected Access is supposed to be the answer to the WEP problems.

Wether or not it is probably remains to be determined.  Am sure there's plenty on the web about it.


As always a good VPN would be the way to go..

Looking at http://www.dlink.com.au/products/routers/di624/ I am seeing a number of purported "security features," to include WPA.  Am I correct in assuming that, even if you use all the features of this particular device, it's still subject to that "sniff half a gig and you can be on it" attack?
