The question is too generic. Best encryption for what purpose? General WiFi? Other questions which come into play: What Operating System(s)? Home, SOHO, Forturne 500 business, or mil-spec use?

Assumng for the moment that it's just Home/SOHO use, that you're using Windows and that all your equipment supports it, then yes, WPA would be the best choice.

By the way, you posted this in the NetStumble Forum ("NetStumbler: Questions and configuration information about the NetStumbler software".)This question has nothing to do with NetStumbler, and should be in one of the more general areas such as Windows or Unix/Linx.
