Guest Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I have a question in regards to Wifi tethering. I know security with WEP is very lax, it can be cracked in seconds these days with some simple tools downloaded off the net. Is there a way to get tethering to do WPA?

Guest blackcoffee85 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 I think at the moment the answer is no. The benefit of using WEP over no security is that people can't just connect to you if you're in a public area. You might also find access control useful. By whitelisting your MAC address, others won't be able to connect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
