Not really.

The problem with WEP is that you feel like you've taken action to secure your network, so you feel like you're a little closer to being secure than you would be having no encryption at all.

This leads you to believe that you're closer to being ok than you were before you implemented it.

The reality is that you might just as well have taken the 30 seconds that it took you to set up WEP and done something more useful with the time, like maybe picking fluff out of your belly button.....

Seriously.....do yourself a favour.....upgrade to WPA2.
