I am trying to decide on how best to secure my home wireless network.
From the many postings in the this newsgroup and articles on-line, WEP should not be considered.
I have a Linksys WRT54G V4 router which does support WPA. I have configured a laptop with Windows XP home to connect using WPA. I also have a desktop running Windows 2000 on which I have gotten wpa_supplicant running.
Am I better off running the router using WPA or should I just chuck everything and set up a secure tunnel using a machine running secure shell? If I do things this way, I am guessing my network would be open but checking of email etc would be confidential.
Any additional thoughts?
Thanks.
