A VPN is part of an acceptable solution. But that only protects the
data in that tunnel. the #1 problem is that 802.11b allows anyone to
:"plug-in". Its the same as me dragging a 100' piece of cat-5 from my
100mb switch to the curb at home. Anyone can plug that in and I can not
stop them. What I have to do is secure it and make it difficult to
plug-in so that someone may not be motivated enough to do it.
