    Although I have lots of security and network background experience, I'm
    a neophyte when it comes to wireless security. I've got a Linksys
    8-port router which serves my internal network, and I am in the process
    of integrating wireless into the mix. I'd like to do this preferably
    without shooting myself in both feed. I've added a 4-port Linksys
    wired/wireless combo, a wireless USB interace for my TiVo, and I'm
    adding a laptop that will be some days be wired and some days be
    wireless. Does anybody have a cheat *** on what security features I
    need to turn on and how good they really are these days? I've turned
    on MAC address restrictions but that's been it so far.

    Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
