Wireless is reckless! Anyone driving by the house, as well as close neighbors, can tap into your wireless network. Using a small Yagi antenna, people as far as a quarter mile away may be able to get in. The antenna is readily available from outfits like Cushcraft. A wired LAN is much safer.

Unless you take necessary precautions. On mine, should someone manage to break WEP, they'd then be up against my firewall, which can only be penetrated using SSH or VPN.
