trpted Says:

Nov 28, 2007 - You could do that. Expect that it is possible to spoof (clone) a MAC address on a PC.

trpted Says:

Nov 28, 2007 - You could do that. Except that you are not really hidden at all. With the right tools, another user can still find you.

trpted Says:

Nov 28, 2007 - About WPA being "broken / hacked". Not if you use a strong password. Like a one from GRC's Ultra High Security Password Generator ;)

Dec 14, 2007 - Question....... What is more secure WEP key, WPA-PSK key(TKIP), WPA-PSK(AES)?

Im talking about that chat text..they are not live chats they are pictures of sentences to make it look like its a live chat. You paid that women to ask specific questions..as I said I like what your doing but its too obvious that you havent done your homework 'fully'..again, good work but your trying to hard man...it looks like a setup and not a natural TV program...looks like a revised show.

Jun 3, 2008 - WEP = Wired Equivelant Privacy (just encrypts traffic) - the connection key can be sniffed, cracked, and connection accessed, WPA = Wireless Protected Access (uses a password to access the AP or Wireless Router, WPA Enterprise = WPAE (Uses a Username AND Password to access an AP or Wireless Router). 802.11a = 5Ghz band, 802.11g/b/n = 2.4Ghz band (b = 11mb/s bandwidth, g = 54mb/s bandwidth (turbo g = 108mb/s), n = up to 300mb/s bandwidth. Bandwidth is not the same thing as throughput kiddies!

matt13ttam Says:

Aug 3, 2008 - o ya i forgot to ask what is this show that guy doesn't know crap but just acts like he does and the the girl act like she doesn't know crap (which is true) and both i think are certifiable

mudworm123 Says:

Sep 9, 2008 - everything is crackable. fake mac address is not a secret. beside using mac address filter, always change your password is the way to do, but i doubt who will do this.

Rafmanne Says:

Oct 31, 2008 - I have to agree, this go sounds like NoBomba, talks a good game but knows little if anything... When you do a video & can't cite the terms commonly used, you fail to make the points. This guy is clearly an idiot, trying to look "officially intelligent". Just like NoBomba, he fails to seal the deal...

Nov 17, 2008 - WEP is the stander encryption on your wireless connection, WPA is a stronger type of encryption, but still able to be cracked, with dictionary based crackers.
