Yo !

I have a wireless network at home and i was just wondering if using 128wep encryption has any effect on "lag" ?

Should i turn wep off or does it not matter for gaming?

It does add a bit of overhead for the packets as they have to be encoded by the sender, and decoded by the receiver.

It could add some lag to it, possibly cause dropped packets as well.
