That is no secret unless you are just an ordinary user, you would be better of using a 64 digit hexadecimal key if really worried about security.

Then again even with a half decent password no one is really going to try and crack your network unless they are either sad or desperate.

Most routers tend to only offer 64 bit though.

Mine is a 64 character key generated by windows completely random using letters and numbers on wpa2

people love to mock me when I praise Linksys but my last 2 linksys routers have both supported AES256, I got the impression that that was the standard these days

Lol I don't it's impossible to remember as its a Mashup of characters and numbers.

So I've got it on a USB drive in a notepad file then just a case of copy and paste.

So effectively, your super secure password is actually far less secure than a much shorter one that you could actually remember?
