  • WEP vs. WPA encryptions for a wireless router?

    What are the advantages and disadvantages of using WEP versus WPA encryption for a wireless router? Is there a difference in speed or security between these two types of encryption?

  • Is there anyway to see who is using my wireless network?

    I've been getting some very bad latency as of late, and I suspect that perhaps someone has hacked my wireless router. Is there anyway of checking who is using the router, wireless, wired, or otherwise?

    If I do find that someone is using my wireless network, is there anyway to ban people from using it, or is the only way to stop them by changing my router's password?

  • What has been the biggest surprise this season?

    1. The Patriots video tape controversy

    2. The sheer number of player injuries from the first two weeks and the preseason

    3. The Saints being 0-2

    4. The Lions being 2-0

    5. Three of the arguably best running backs in the game doing so poorly so far (Ladanian Tomlinson, Larry Johnson, Stephen Jackson)

    6. The highest scoring game of the season so far would involve, of all teams, the Browns

    7. Donovan McNabb not yet being out with an injury for the rest of the season

    8. Something else...?

  • Okay, let's say the Patriots end up winning the Superbowl this seasn...?

    If the Patriots end up winning the Superbowl this season, will it actually hurt the NFL more then benefit it?

    The NFL has already suffered quite a few black eyes in the public relations department this season between the Tank Johnson incident, the Michael Vick incident, the Pacman Jones incident, the Lance Briggs incident, and the on-going steroids problem that all professional sports are dealing with. At this point can the NFL afford to have their a team that's shrouded in the video taping controversy be the poster team of the league?

  • Is anyone else bothered by the use of the "gay"?

    It' about the only word in the English language that I can think of that's not only commonly used a form of ridicule that reflects a fairly substantial part of population. Just about every other word that is used as a derogatory term for race, creed, or sex are looked upon as a source of disdain by most people, and anyone that uses those words are publicly scorned. You don't have to look far to see how the word "gay" is used a form of insult, just take a look at every other question here at Yahoo Answers.

    I think this day and age most of us have at least one gay person in our lives, whether it be a relative, a friend, a neighbor, or a co-worker. If that's the case, why do we continue to use this word in an insulting manner? We we are truly supposed to love thy neighbor and be more decent human beings, shouldn't our language reflect that as well?

  • Is Cena the next Hogan?

    Let's look at how they're similar...

    1. They're both really popular with the kids

    2. They both have great physiques

    3. They're both terrible wrestlers

    4. They both have decent mike skills (Hogan is better, obviously, but Cena still has time to develop)

    5. They're both been given long title reigns due to their popularity with the kids

    6. Because of their popularity with the kids, they both help the WWE sell a lot of swag

    The only real difference I see between the two is that Cena is often booed by the "hardcore" wrestling fans and Hogan is often universally cheered. From that prospective I say that if Hogan arrived during Cena's time he would get the same reaction. Hogan was fortunate to be a wrestler during the 80s when the whole "smart wrestling fans" concept didn't really exist, so the idea of booing someone for lack of wrestling talent wasn't prevalent during that time.

    Like it or not (and I don't, honestly), I think Cena may be the face and the future of the WWE.

  • Help identifying a Japanese singer?

    Well, I don't think she's actually Japanese, but...

    I was in Japan earlier this month. I was watching a top 50 music charts show on television there when I came across this singer. She appeared to be Caucasian and had curly black, shoulder-lengthed hair. She wore black-rimmed glasses and played a piano as she sang.

    Her name was shown in katakana for a brief moment before she disappeared from the screen, so I couldn't catch it in time. Does anyone know who this is?

  • A question for Madden (the game) fans...?

    My nephew's looking into trying out one of the Madden games now that he's developed an interest in American football. The thing is that he doesn't own a XBox 360 or a PS3, so I'm looking to get him one of the older versions of the game for the PS2 from a game store. I've never really dabbled much with the Madden games so I'm bit clueless in this department.

    My question is this: Which year should I buy for him? Is there any particular year that's better than the other on the PS2?

  • Which NFL team is the most over-hyped this pre-season?

    And will that team actually live up to the hype?

    I think it's a tie between the Chargers and the Patriots for me.

  • Advice on buying a new car?

    I am looking to help my sister buy a new car soon, and I could use a bit of advice.

    Right now we are looking at different models, but what I'm interested in knowing what I should keep an eye out for when negotiating monthly payments and price. Other than those big two, is there anything I should be keeping an eye out for?

    Also, can anyone explain APR to me? I've never gotten a good explanation of what that is.

    Any other advance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

  • Is anyone else sick of Kevin Nash?

    I liked Nash during his Diesel/Big Daddy Cool days, and I also enjoyed his work during the nWo day. So there's a few points for him.

    However, the work he's been doing in TNA has been terrible. The man all but ruined the X Division with his stupid skits and his whole "size doe matter" squashes of the X Division roster. He took a perfectly good worker in Jay Lethal and turned him into a clown called the Black Machismo. And quite frankly, the "comedy" sketches that he was doing with Alex Shelley really weren't that funny.

    Your thoughts?

  • Have you forgiven Edge?

    Now that some time has passed, have you forgiven Edge for the whole thing involving Lita and Matt Hardy? Keep in mind that not only did he sleep with Matt Hardy's former fiancee, but he he essentially got him fired. Sure Hardy got hired back, but still.

    Me, I'm still a little iffy with the guy. Adultery is one of those things that I have a hard time forgiving especially considering that Edge was married at the time.

  • Remember when titles were a reward for years of hard work?

    Remember the days when titles were rewarded to individuals that had excelled from mid-card status to championship status? Even though we as wrestling fans know that wrestling is scripted, I think we all appreciate it when someone has dedicated themselves to the professional for years and then finally was rewarded with a world title reign. I think we all smiled a bit the first time Mankind, Eddie Guerrero, Rey Mysterio, and Bret Hart first won the world title, because we as fans have seen their dedication and happy to see the company reward them for their efforts.

    These days it seems like the world title is dropped into the lap of whoever the business is trying to push now. Really, does the very green John Morrison really deserve the ECW title? Does the Great Khali, who has yet to learn more than two manuevers and still hasn't mastered the art of bending his knees when he walks really deserve the world title?

    I definitely miss the days when the world title actually meant something.
