Wireless Data Security Options
Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11g wireless networks at a maximum range of 300 feet.
Typically, a wireless access point inside a building works best with devices within a 100 foot
radius. Such distances can allow for others outside your immediate area to access your network.
Unlike wired network data, your wireless data transmissions can extend beyond your walls and
can be received by anyone with a compatible adapter. For this reason, use the security features of
your wireless equipment. The wireless access point provides highly effective security features that
are covered in detail in this chapter. Deploy the security features appropriate to your needs.
