Security is no problem to me, but the problem that i'm most worried is my
budjet. If my laptop cant run wlan (for some weird reason that linux guy
couldnt even name) so all the effort would be worthless.

FreeNX uses ssh already, and you can enable SSL in it also, so it sounds
to me that it's a matter of restricting access from and to your wireless
(ip-address/mac-address e.g.)

(if you're really paranoid : WEP is cracked already, and certain setups
of WPA are also not so secure :-)
