Would an unsecured wifi network be slightly faster than a "secured" network because the router and your network adapter doesn't have to deal with any encryption?

 No.547265

No, encryption isn't done in mid-air

No, on the contrary an insecure wifi network would be slower because then any average Joe and his mom could piggyback on the same connection. If you mean association with the router in question, there isn't any difference as to how fast the connection is made like >>547265 said

At best 2.5fps

Assuming no freeloaders yes it would have to be slightly faster.

I use to be generous and left my wifi open so neighbors and people walking by could use it, But after a while i started getting isp letters and shit.

I gave them a free connection and they couldn't even protect it with a cheap vpn...

That's why we cant have nice things.

People are stupid and will hurt you with their ignorance if you let them.

I think that's why most public hotspots have a capitive portal page that basically tells them not to be an ass hat.

If i decide to open it back up i will use one next time.
