Oh thanks, take away my sense of security. I saw something about mac filtering in the admin, but is 64 bit really that easy to beat? That's 10 digits of numbers, I think the manual said. I know 128 bit is better, but how easy can it really be to find a 10 digit code? It's certainly not going to be a lucky guess. I'm not one of the people that use love or 7777. I would be interested in hearing your take on this, if there is real reason not to think the 64 bit is safe. Tom
