I don't think i need massive security but i do use internet for banking for example and i live in a city so i am afraid curious people might try to break in, especially as i have read in the past that it really is not hard to break a wep key..

I agree that WEP should be sufficient for home use. &nbsp;If you want to do a little extra, I would suggest that you also restrict by MAC address. Your wireless router should have the ability to say that &quot;only these MAC addresses are allowed wireless access&quot;.

Hello,<br />
<br />
I have a wireless clearwire modem which i wish to connect to a wireless router for convenience in my house.<br />
I have always been concerned about wireless security, i have looked a little into the wi-fi routers + pcmcia cards and notice that most seem to provide only fixed WEP, is this enough? isn't it better to have dynamic wep key exchange or something? Which routers provide this ? Any advice would be appreciated .<br />
regards,

wireless network security tip please!

Software firewalls, also known as host-based firewalls, provide a layer of software on one host that controls network traffic in and out of that single machine. Most operating systems now include firewall software, but many available software firewalls include central distribution, antivirus systems and disaster recovery.

Software Firewalls

Cisco PIX is a dedicated hardware firewall appliance; the Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance (ASA) is a firewall and anti-malware security appliance that provides unified threat management and protection the PIX does not. Other Cisco devices and systems include routers, switches, storage networking, wireless and the software and hardware for PIX Firewall Manager (PFM), PIX Device Manager (PDM) and Adaptive Security Device Manager (ASDM).

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
