Wireless security

[Ed Wilts]

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 sheet 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.
