You can enable WEP to prevent casual sniffing: the : TiVo understands WEP with a single fixed 40 or 128 bit key. Another thing to keep in mind is that if you are good about rotating your WEP keys, you'll be much more secure against casual sniffers. Maybe run airsnort (or equivalent) at home and when it cracks the key, drop in another one. Unless there's a different way of cracking WEP than duplicate/weak IVs, this should put you in reasonable shape. -- aka Dolph Longhorn GPG Key ID: 0xF8F859D0 http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=0xF8F859D0&op=index "There is no such thing as right and wrong, there's just popular opinion." -Jeffrey Goines
