Unsecure enough for you to log on without needing a username or password. Probably doesn't provide a masked IP or Subnet. Not that unsecured if you have a decent firewall and up-to-date virus software.

VERY...with no security at all, your network is open to anyone within a 300 to 500 ft radius with a WiFi card...they can send viruses and hacks to your network quite easily. I would suggest that if you are using a WiFi network that you need to use some form of security like WEP at 128bits, and also a non-broadcasted ssid, and decline all connections only allowing the MAC address of the computers you know are safe.
