Hi ... I am using a Linksys router and I am curious for wireless as to which is a more secure setting . Here are the options I see >> WEP , WPA and WPA2  
 
 
Also if anyone could explain what this setting is for and were should I set mine at >> WPA Alogorithms >>> TKIP or AES
 
If it matter I am using xp pro sp2 with cable net connection  
 
Thanks

WPA2 is the most secure. You may need to download a patch for XP as it's not supported as standard (though maybe that will be rolled into SP3).
