Security Upgrade
Well I have done it now.  I have been studying Wireless Security a lot lately and I finally got around to using real security on our home network.  I used to disable SSID (almost worthless), MAC filter (almost worthless) and WEP (very hackable).  Well, I have now upgraded to WPA-PSK with TKIP data encryption.  Also, my passphrase is 63 random CHARACTERS LONG!  I feel really secure now :-D The nice thing is, with that much security, I am able to turn SSID on so that I can find my access point and I can turn MAC filtering off. If any of you understood anything I just said, you can tell that you have been related to me for a very long time. ;-)
