    Wireless Security Questions?
    « on: March 01, 2009, 06:03:27 PM »
    1. I use WPA with a decent mix of letters numbers and caps in my password but I would like to know if there is any program out there with the potential to bypass this no matter what password I use, as with WEP. And if so what could I do to prevent it? I've followed the advice of more than one wireless security guide but can't shake the feeling someone could still get in.

    2. Can anyone who uses my signal still see my internet  history even if my router doesn't store that information.

    3. on the same note I'd like to ask what "Enable Wireless Protected Setup (WPS)" is. This is a fairly new option in my router config page.

    thanks
