You can leave the password blank. Though that does mean anyone driving by your house might have their phone or whatever automatically connect to it. A few devices also don't seem to like blank passwords (I think the Wii refused to connect that way).

A simple password is fine. Keeps completely random people out, and devices will connect OK. Edge-based security is flawed, anyway.
