True but WPA or WPA2 with a strong non dictionary password is the only way to really go.. WEP can be cracked within 2 minutes..

WEP is a joke, for encryption WPA or WPA2 all the way and MAC filtering too boot. I my wireless network I just use mac filtering so I dont loose any speed esp with the xbox. But I also dont live real close to anyone thats gonna try to use my wireless of that is anywhere good enough to crack the small handful of mac addresses that are allowed lol.
