Doesn't matter I use WPA2 - Enterprise with RADIUS authentication through my PIX 515 and even my hacker friends have failed. If you use lesser encryption methods expect any 10 year old with some free time to break your security.

WPA2 + RADIUS + OTP = FTW though might be a bit overkill...

Yeah but it would be really really fun!
Well, networking is how I make a living so it's not overkill for MY home network - which also includes: Cisco 7206, Cat 6500, 2x3750, 2x2950, plus about 16 D-Link enterprise switches. I like to test at home (last one was an OSPF design test for the Vancouver olympics)

Feel sorry for your wife. Bernice won't let me put a server in our place. She's a party pooper.

Use WPA2
Put your wireless on its own segment and firewall it from the rest of the network
Treat it like it's public and consider it unsafe
Use some form of remote access VPN to connect to an "inside" wired host/gateway whenever possible on WiFi

My wife has no problem with it, I bought all the equipment (bare chassis' the blades came from friends at Cisco) before we were married. Now I have my lab and since I already have CCNP, MCSE, CNA, and A+ certs I am working toward CCIE.

Your mom is CCIE. Wow. We live in a condo so I understand there's not that much space. Definitely when I get a house I'm having a dedicated lab so I can play with everything.
