There is one reason I'm in the middle of studying to get my technician
license.

I want to create a wireless tcp/ip connection from a portable computer
(laptop or wearable) to my home computer, through which I can route to the
internet.

I know I can do this.  

But there appears to be a problem.

If I were to use this packet radio tcp/ip pipe, in the clear, people would
get my telnet passwords.

I could easily fix that by encrypting my pipe over ssh.

But it sounds like that encryption would be rather illegal.

This disturbs me immensely.

I could easily set up this wireless connection.  And I could easily secure
a tcp/ip connection.  But I cannot do both together legally ?

Are there really no bands where I'm freely allowed to transmit encrypted
data ?  

I have no desire do do anything commercial or criminal over these
connections, I just want to keep people w/ packet sniffers off of my root
password.
