Depending on the amount of traffic that you're putting into the air,
WEP can be cracked in a matter of seconds. Dynamic WEPs don't help
either. My suggestion is that you look into more robust protection for
your wireless network.

Hi ,
I was wondering if it is possible to locate and catch
a guy who is connecting to our wep wireless network
and downloading stuff from torrents and using up our
bandwidth ..
I checked up with arp scan and found 2 unknown IPs
192.168.1.246 and 247
Is there anyway of locating the guy in a building of 7
floors and how to stop this ..I have tried changing
the Wep keys so . he is cracking the wep key.
Any Suggestion People ?
