Since security is a major concern when attached to the Internet, why not
make use of the three-interface firewall solution within
Bearing/Shorewall and place the wireless access point on that third
interface of the firewall within the DMZ?
Maybe I'm overlooking a "barn-door" security breach, but it just seems
logical to use your wireless devices on "that" interface, and routing
traffic accordingly.
Anyone else have any thoughts on this?

Regards,
Danny Carter
