Download XCleaner Free Edition. You has a nice key generator for ascii passwords. Your WAP key can be entered in ascii text (5 characters for 64 bit, 10 for 128)

G'day,\n\nThe first guy's link is a very good description of the importance of securing the your WLAN.\n\nThe best way to secure your WLAN at this moment is to assign a WPA key in your router.\n\n1. Make sure your computer is using Windows XP SP2.  Go to Start-Settings-Control Panel-Systems and check the version of your operating system.\n2. Login to your router, find the security section whereby you can generate password to secure access to your network.  It usually come in form of WEP or WPA encryption.  WPA is more secure and easier to remember since you can put any meaningful codes you like.  WEP is less secure and only accept hexadecimal characters.  Activate the encryption you like, enter the password and save the change.\n3. The wireless connection is now disconnected.  When you are trying to connect, it will ask for the password.  Enter the password that you have set in the router and voila... you are reconnected.\n\nHope this helps.  Good luck!

First you will have to generat your key:\n\ngpg --gen-key\n\nYou will have to answer a few questions to make the key you want. Defaults will be OK. But if you want more security try a 4096K key.\n\nOnce you have your key you will only need to execute the next command:\n\ngpg -e file_you_want_to_encrypt\n\nYou will need to introduce the name you used in your key, leave the destinatary as the default since you only want to encrypt and that will be all\n\nIn case you want to exchange files with friends you will need a public key to receive files from them and their public key to encrypt files for them.

A WEP key is composed of a certain number of Hexidecimal digits.  These digits are 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F.  Use any combination of these digits.  Do not spell a word in the dictionary.  Try not to use the same digit more than once.\n\nA good way to get a random number is to use the Hex random number generator at https://www.grc.com/pass

First and foremost, you should probably secure your wireless network. WEP is not particularly secure, but will prevent at least casual intruders from gaining access to your network. WPA is a bit more secure. \n\n1. There is no easy way to figure out who is using your wireless network. if someone is using it, the computer will probably be close (300 ft), but if you are really interested, you will need something like a wireless packet sniffer installed to see what kind of traffic is flowing through your network\n\n2. An intruder will be able to see all of your information if do have not secured your network using something like WEP. These days most web sites use HTTPS to encrypt credit cards and passwords (which would mean that the intruder cannot see them), but you should still secure your network.\n\n3. Zone alarm will potentially protect you, but not if it is installed between your DSL / phone line and your wireless access point (remember that if the intruder can get into your wireless network, they can directly connect to your computer). There are a number of changes you can make to minimize the risk of somebody gaining access to your computer (e.g., if you are using windows, don't enable file sharing, make sure the latest patches are installed, etc.), but generally there are always some holes a determined intruder can use to get access to your data. Again, best way to prevent this is to enable wireless security....\n\nMore info:\n\n"Sorta liek creating a decoy unsecured network,tempting an intruder and then monitoring his tracks as to what he'll be upto wid such a network.Will i be able to gain the info of his computer username.So basically, does the intrusion work both ways wen i have created the network.? thanks again. cheers."\n\nYes, and this is called a 'honey trap' system (http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=honeytrap+security&prssweb=Search&ei=UTF-8&fr=ytff1-&x=wrt). Using a sniffer, you can try two things (based on his level of sophistication):\n\n1. watch what the intruder does, and hope that by passively observing the traffic, you get some insight about identify, etc.\n\n2. actively try to break into the intruder's system, really doing the same thing to him (though not sure how legal this is)\n\nHope this help...

1. dont broadcast ssid\n2. create a ssid that is long and alpha numeric\n3. use wep or wpa\n4. use mac address filter\n5. use time restriction\n6. use wireless station listing\n7. set password to admin \n8. change the above once in a while

I can tell you *what* you have to do, in order to secure a wirelss network. *How* you have to do it depends very much on the particular wireless devices you have - check their documentation. (When all else fails, Read The Fine Manual, you know...)\n\nFirst, let me begin by telling that enabling WEP encryption is not enough. It is a weak encryption algorithm that can be easily broken by an attacker. You should use WPA encryption instead - provided that your wireless devices support it. You should also choose a strong (difficult to guess) password for it.\n\nNext, configure your network not to broadcast its SSID.\n\nFinally, you should configure your router to allow only your devices to join the network. The devices are recognized by their MAC address - basically, configure the router to deny access to all devices that have MAC addresses other than those that your devices have. Since in your cases the devices are desktops, you can determine their MAC addresses by opening a command prompt window and running the program "ipconfig /all" (without the quotes) - the MAC address is listed in the field labeled "Physical address".\n\nOh, and please understand that a determined attacker can penetrate a WiFi network, even if it is secured like this. (MAC addresses can be spoofed, WPA encryption can be cracked too, although it's more difficult, the SSID can be determined even if it is not broadcasted, and so on.) Basically, there is no way to secure a WiFi network completely; you can only do a pretty good job of securing it.

perhaps you should give me more details..\nthough building a WAP site can use any free server..\ntry t35.com\nsample: kacamata.t35.com/wml

I assume you use Windows XP.\n\n1. Right click folder(s) that want to be secured.\n2. Click "Properties".\n3. In General tab, click "Anvanced".\n4. Give a checkmark at "Encrypt contents to secure data".\n5. Click "OK".\n\nThis is my humble opinion. There are another several ways to protect folder(s). You can also use software(s) made by 3rd parties. If these suggestions is good, would you please rate it? Thank you.\n\nGreetings from Jakarta, Indonesia.

Read the manual.  It tells you how to set up your WEP encryption.  Also, check the wireless networking forum on dslreports.com.  They also have a Linksys specific forum.

Enable WEP or WPA encryption.  That will be in your router configuration settings, login to your router and follow the instructions that were included to turn it on.  Once you have done that when you connect to the network, Windows will ask you for the network key.  You will only have to enter it once and your computer will remember it but no one else in the area will be able to connect to the network.\n\nWPA encryption is stronger but WEP is older and hence will be compatible with older devices that may not support the WPA encryption standard.
