What are some other things you guys reccomend for Wireless Security?

I've changed our SSID. I disabled SSID broadcast but then nothing worked (?) I'm using the cheap linksys shit (BEFW11S4 :/). A friend of mine who works for Cisco says that WEP does cause a major hit on performance (which already seems bad; family doesn't like our WLAN too much). Haven't heard a peep about WPA though.

I have yet to change the admin password for some reason.

I think I may just disable DHCP as it's causing big problems with port forwarding and my server!
