I'm not very knowledgeable about wireless networking - I can plug the stuff together, that's pretty much it - so I apologise if this is very basic.
I turned off the wireless part of my router because I'm paranoid. But now I have a PSP and I want to muck around. It seems that the PSP doesn't support WEP. I was thinking of using an open connection but limiting the MAC address to that of my PSP.
The question is, how secure is that, can MAC addresses be faked? Or is there a better option?
(I know the question is generated by the PSP; but I thought the issue was general enough to put in the Computers section.)
