  • WEP is no longer secure, it can be cracked in minutes. Use WPA2 AES, not TKIP for the highest security.

  • @DarkUchiha95 lol ok ;p

    maybe you can help me then? :) i made a network and now its in that list of wireless networks, but i need to get it in the list where you can choose the network you want to connect with.. =/

  • @Mindfxcker LOL, that comment was over a year ago but i appreciate your help nonetheless. i had already figured out how to configure wireless networks and have learned a lot more about computers than i did a year ago. but thanks anyway.

  • @DarkUchiha95 go to 'control panel'

    click 'network center'

    at your left click 'manage wireless networks'

    Thats it ;)

  • my router does not support passwords for ssid its ssid is 135482 and no password and yesterday i had over 2000 people using it because its in an appartment

  • Don't use WEP.Use WPA or WPA2.If you do that,you have much less of a chance of being hacked.

  • good nic

  • i got a Vista

    but, i don't know how to make a new network thingy. i already have a router and im connected to it (obviously) but i want to make it secure cuz people keep connecting to my network and lagging it. please reply
