Wi-Fi cracking nutjob demonstrates why WEP is pants

I’m starting to get fed up telling people that WEP is about as secure as my garden shed, the one with no lock on it as the door doesn’t close properly. I never got around to fixing the shed as it’s only used by cats and fairies (it’s a long story) and I really don’t care if anyone were to break into the thing. You should care about your Wi-Fi connections though, and although I appreciate there’s a difference between the consumer end of the market and the enterprise end, you might be surprised how small that difference often is.
