2-7-6 Security Tips For Wireless Network
Here are some quick tips to help you improve the security level of your wireless network:
1. Never use simple words (like school, apple and computer) as WEP encryption or WPA passphrase.
2. A complicated (the combination of number, alphabet, even symbol, and long enough) WEP key and WPA passphrase is
much safer than simple and short ones. Remember that the wireless client is capable to keep the key or passphrase for
you, so you only have to input the complicated key or passphrase once. It’s not too trouble but will greatly improve security
level.
