Do Wireless Security Settings Affect Anything But The Security? (speed, Web Browsing, Online Games…)?

I can choose from WEP (64 or 128 bit) and WPA or WPA2, I was wondering what these things would affect besides the security though.

    Nothing. As long as your internet is slower than 54Mbps (which is most of the world), your online doings should not noticeably change.
    Most routers have speeds of around 54 Mbps, most internet providers give speeds of 1-10 Mbps. This means that the wired and wireless computers should have the same connection speeds. If the internet speed were 100Mbps, it would only transmit at 54Mbps.
