Limit the number of DHCP addresses to the number of wireless access points that you will be using. Optionally, set static IP addresses, set to non-standard network blocks. Consider using VPN, SSL, Firewalls, RADIUS, Kerberos or other access control, or end-to-end encryption. Most of these can be integrated into your 802.11b appliance.

YES! Wireless networks can be configured to be just as secure as a wired network. All data transmission can be encrypted with a 128bit encryption key allowing only known machines to receive and decrypt this information. About Us | News | I.T.

The college wireless network uses 802.1x authentication to ensure that only authorized users can use the service. In addition, it uses advanced encryption using rotating "keys" protects the privacy of your transmitted information. However, wireless networking is intrinsically not as secure as wired communications since it is still subject to "eavesdroppers" who can possible "hack" your communications. See similar questions...

Keeping a computer secure on a wireless network is the same as keeping a computer secure on a wired network. One must keep the computer virus protection up-to-date, install any patches for the computers operating system and keep the password(s) safe and secret. The official Information Systems wireless policy can be found at http://www.policy.ku.edu/it/Wireless LAN Policy 3-25-04.doc See similar questions...

There are settings on your router, which allow you to protect your Internet connection from being hijacked. You should refer to the manual of the router for specific direction on how to do so and of course changing the default router password is a must. The most common way to secure a wireless connection is to use WEP ? which is an encryption and requires a key to access the wireless network. You could also try installing lead walls around the house (not recommended). See similar questions...

ZoomAir is very secure. ZoomAir uses Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology, which is extremely resistant to corruption, interference, jamming, and unauthorized detection. In addition, all wireless users on your ZoomAir network must identify themselves with a system ID that prevents unauthorized users from entering. See similar questions...

Network security is of high concern; using radio signal broadcasts, wireless is inherently insecure without taking additional steps. The NDSU wireless network supports WPA2 (Wireless Protected Access) and, for older computers, the VPN (Virtual Private Network) client. You should always secure your wireless connection by using WPA2 or the VPN client. Using WPA2 or the VPN client will encrypt your data before it is transmitted over the wireless network.

USC wireless network in not encrypted in any way; your data and personal information are not secure. You are responsible for protecting your information. For greater security, we advise that you use the VPN client software. See similar questions...

The campus wireless network can handle hundreds of users logged in at any one time, but the more active users, the slower the network becomes. On average, one access point can handle approximately 30 users without a noticeable degradation in performance. See similar questions...

We don't. As I mentioned in the session, we prefer to put the burden of encryption on the application and not on the network. See similar questions...

Users should assume that data transmitted over the wireless network is not secure. Data, as it is transmitted from the wireless network adapter to the access point, is not currently encrypted. 128-bit encryption will possibly be phased in the near future and may be a requirement to use the wireless network.

As with any high-speed wireless service, the Wireless Mobile Network is not inherently secure. Furthermore, wireless communications can be intercepted by equipment and software designed for that purpose. Notwithstanding our efforts to enhance security with respect to the service, we cannot guarantee the effectiveness of these efforts and will not be liable to you or any other party for any lack of security that may result from your use of the service or your device.

Probably. Any wireless receiver supporting the industry standard 802.11b or 802.11g protocols should work. However, in rare cases, we have found wireless receivers which had compatibility issues with the computer upon which it was installed. See similar questions...
