Replacement of WEPWhy do you need replacement of WEP? Check here about the best WEP replacement - WPA. If you ask me is it better to use WEP or to have no security at all on your wireless network, I would say use WEP. But today WEP is not enough. Your network is very vulnerable with WEP – check here why!I do not recommend WEP not only in enterprise environment, but also in your home networks. The reason for that is that all new WLAN equipment supports WPA. Also majority of old WLAN equipment you could make WPA compatible only with simple upgrade of drivers on your PC and firmware on your wireless router or access point. WEP can be replaced with WPA TKIP (Temporary Key Integrity Protocol). TKIP is also backward compatible with WEP. TKIP is not perfect but it is good enough for your home network. For enterprise networks that could afford RADIUS server use WPA and WPA2 Enterprise. Return from Replacement of WEP to Wireless Internet Security
