It depends on your requirement. If you're looking at it from the perspective of protecting your data from (a) determined intruders and (b) insiders who already have WEP access, then obviously not -- running IPSEC over your WLAN is a better way to meet that requirement. But it does make a useful tripwire. Nobody breaks WEP by accident, and anyone who does break onto a WLAN running WEP cannot believably claim not to have known that their access was unauthorized. If your provide multiple SSIDs, some with WEP and some without, people who just want guest access to the Internet will use the non-WEP and leave the WEP alone. There is no "secure enough". There is only "satisfies requirements X, Y, Z" -- or doesn't. David Gillett
