I would like some help with making my wireless network more secure please.As all this is new to me i would like simple and easy to follow guides.I have.....

PC 1 wired to the wireless router.
PC 2 wireless connection
PC 3 wireless connection
PS2 wireless connection through Game adapter

Using Linksys WRT54G Router
Linksys WMP54G PCI card
Linksys WMP54G PCI card
Linksys Gaming adapter

I would like to just make it so that no-one can wirelessly connect to my network only my selected PC's.

ps.Using XP pro on all pc's.

Thanks but i don't want to mess about with updates and stuff.

@Laser402

I will give the WPA a try but first i need to find out how to determine if the PS2 Adapter supports it.

@tolien

Sorry don't have WPA2

@Avalon

Wow that is sum long password.DOes this need to be entered onto all devices using the network.Also what size password is considered as reasonably safe?
 
Thanks again Tolien,the Router is ver 2 and it does support WPA.It has the options for..
WPA Pre-shared key
WPA Radius
Radius
WEP

The only problem is i think the gaming adapter only supports 128-bit WEP, 64-bit WEP.Model WGA54G
