It doesn't hurt to have your wifi on its own subnet with another firewall (or, at the very least, ACL's on the router and/or access point) between the wifi and wired portions of your network. Having properly secured wifi with appropriately long encryption keys and certificate-based client authentication controlled by a properly configured authentication server (either Radius or TACACS+) either.
I used to do that, back in the days of 802.11b and WEP. However, since I now use WPA2, with a 63 random character password, my WiFi is on the same subnet as my main network. I used the password generator at www.grc.com.
Perhaps more generically, and for KDE users,there is a a widget you can have on-screen or in the edge panel that generates random readable passwords of any length. The default length is 10 characters; I reset that to a minimum of 16 for use on web sites that require a password. Yes it can also generate 63 character ones. I also use a password manager to remember them.
