Hi all!
I don't know nothing about cryptography using sockets.
I need to do an application written in C that is a client/server that
receives and responds commands.
The data must be cryptographed as it will travell in a wireless network.
I plan to do this client/server to be used inside an openwrt router.
I only need advices about how/where I can get started.
Is openssl suitable for this task?
Are there other options?
Thanks in advance!

In case anyone want to know, this is a task for graduation and this is the
system overview:
The client connects by cable on an AccessPoint that will pass the data for
the other AP and will communicate with a board.
cable +---------------+ ***encrypted data***
+----------------------+ LAN port
{client}<-------------->| Bridge AP | <- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ->
| AccessPoint2 |-------------------->{ethernet-based controller board}
+----------------+ wireless
+---------------------+ LAN cable port
