I read carefully FAQ as well as man pages for ifconfig and it seems to
me (probably I am wrong) that OpenBSD supports only WEP wireless
protocol by default. I understand that both protocols WEP and WAP/WAP2
are not really secure and that the way to go is to use OpenVPN but the
university where I work has WAP/WAP2 wireless network for general
purposes and I would like to be able to use laptop running OpenBSD on
the campus.
Does having WPA on a public wifi actually do anything?
WPA is not supported. AFAIK noone is working on it.

search for "WPA".

Speaking of security probably does nothing. I am not competent to talk
about other functions. Last year we had bunch of kids storing video
games on Library servers which runs Winblows NT. The library computers
were down 3 weeks. When I suggested that they run OpenBSD or FreeBSD
they said I was crazy.
