    Deluxe or not: What to choose for WEP encryption

    Hi all.

    Hope someone here can help me, since my local dealers aren't at much help

    I want an Asus WL-500G Deluxe router, but my computer can only run WEP 128 encryption and not the WPA encryption.

    Can I use the Deluxe model at WEP encryption, or do I need to buy the WL-500G (non-deluxe) model to run WEP encrpt. only?

    Also, my local dealers has a:
    WL-500G DEL SECURE HOME GATEWAY
    model. Is that the Deluxe or non-deluxe model...or is it an third version of this model?

    Best regards and much appreciated

    WEP is not what I would recommend (for security reasons) , but a wl-500g deluxe will do WEP as well as WPA. Don't worry.

    But if I were you, I'd REALLY pay the little money for a WPA wireless card.
