Currently WPA can only be hacked using a brute force dictionary attack. Therefore if your key isn't a dictionary word then there is no luck. Come up with a sentence and using the first letter of each word replacing letters with numerical representation (7:T; 3:E; 1:L etc) and mixing up the case. There you have it. A strong password. Take it one step further and use a radius server for authentication against AD. You configure who has access and who doesn't.

Btw I have a key to my house hidden somewhere around my house...

@Menthix it was not about what you said (of course its the best idea to use the most secure settings) it was about how...

I would also recommend using WPA2, but if it gives any kind of problem, I always recommend switching to WEP64bit with a 10 digit password. Which in my experience gives the least problems when using old windows versions or obscure hardware...
