wpa or wep....

Ok, I know WEP is easily cracked....

Problem is, I setup WPA today, and had problems with network drives, and
software not being ready.... Just seemed like it wasnt very
"stable"...Although through the WPA, everything did work, just wasnt as
"solid" as WEP....

This is my first experience with WEP....

I really need to protect the network..how about WEP with mac address
filtering?

If you're concerned that someone is going to crack WEP then spoofing the
MAC address is even easier since it's broadcast with every packet,
regardless of the payload encryption.
