WEP Cracking

Tom's Networking has created a great step-by-step guide on how to crack wireless networks, even when protected by WEP keys. Click here for full details. Maybe I should revisit the security of my network, and segment off the wireless and wired LANs. I still think an attacker would go for an 'easy kill' if there's one around, and in my neighborhood, there's no shortage of open access points.
