All wireless can be hacked with free software available on the internet.

WEP is far easier to hack.

True, but its sort of like securing a safe. You can use a cheap, flimsy lock or a heavy padlock. Both can be violated. It´s just that the former makes it a lot easier.

True, but a WPA2 protected network with a secure password (not “password” or “ABC123”) is theoretically crackable, but for practical purposes beyond the ability of average hackers.
