The problem with many WEP and WPA keys is that they can easily be cracked if
they're not long enough or complex enough. *Entropy* is a dashboard widget
that generates complex random WEP and WPA keys that can't be cracked easily.
To be sure of creating a truly random key that can't be broken, Entropy uses
four different sources including radioactive decay/HotBits, atmospheric
noise/Random.org, various sources/EntropyPool and /dev/random. Entropy can
use create passwords in the following encryption modes: WEP, 64-bit,
hexadecimal, WEP, 128-bit, hexadecimal, WEP, 256-bit, hexadecimal, WPA-PSK,
8-character, ASCII, WPA-PSK, 20-character, ASCI and WPA-PSK, 63-character,
ASCII. Entropy is extremely easy to use and by clicking the info symbol on
the widget, you can select the type of encryption you want and from which
source you'd like to use. Some of the keys generated didn't seem particularly
long but, theoretically, they must be quite hard to crack according to the
developer. Unfortunately, the developer's site seems to be down frequently so
don't expect much support. *Entropy is a useful tool for anyone seeking to
generate highly complex and strong WEP and WPA passwords for their router or
WiFi network.*Download *Entropy 1.4.0* in Softonic
