MacBook: Is my WiFi secure?
When I click on the AirPort menu, my WiFi network doesn't have a padlock next to it. But when I go in to the Network preference panel, it is listed as using WEP.
So which is it, is it secure or not?
The reason I ask is that having enjoyed a relatively fast internet connection, the connection speed has plummeted recently, and I'm wondering if every man and his dog is jumping on to my unsecured WiFi connection?
Is there anyway of telling who is connected to my WiFi router?
Many thanks!

I checked mine and it from memory has nevershowed a padlock beside the name in the airport menu bar menu
Also a good idea would be to use a password of at least 13 characters more is better as it adds to the strentgh and makes it harder to krack
