As Alan said the default is WEP, but it does WPA just fine :)

As to the 2091 it's fine my mate runs one. By default its locked to BT, 
so if you leave BT its junk.
However, it's been, err, fixed. A quick Google will reveal the new 
firmware...

As for the other poster, the HomeHub is a horrible little box...
In itself a cracking idea, wireless router, VOIP, DECT, Fusion, all 
rolled into one...
And then completely ruined by BT rubbish firmware... reboots, lockups, 
you name it....
and locked to BT like the 2091... there is firmware to unlock it, but 
then the VOIP disappears too...
All very annoying... esp. so as it runs Linux and BT haven't fully 
complied with the GPL to release all the source...
