With everyone recommending WPA2, decided I would check mine and see what I had set up. Have Linksys WRT55AG. Using 'G' only. Was on WEP, the latest firmware for this router does not have WPA2 and verified this with Linksys online support.
It does have what they call WPA-Personal. Set this up and after about 2 hours of playing with it, I have full access to the router from my MBP but I have no access to the internet whatsoever.
Finally, just changed it back to WEP and no problem. So, guess basic question is for some of ya'll that are much more tech savvy than I, should I worry about it, as in go get a router that has WPA2 or just let it ride?
