You'll want to use WPA. WPA is newer and much better than the older WEP. Most importantly, several years ago it was discovered that a WEP secured network could be cracked into in several hours time. WEP is close to having no security whatsoever. You may find that some legacy hardware cannot handle WPA. Please do not let this be an excuse to run WEP, you'd be much better off abandoning that hardware for something new.
