MAC address restrictions is really key...

I think that using your wireless routers ability to restrict service to only the MAC (hardware) addresses you tell it to allow is even more important than WEP, but this is the most sensible recommendation. Just WEP and MAC address restriction and you'll have privacy and nobody piggybacking on your net connection.
