  OpenVPN.  (http://www.openvpn.net/).  Free, Open Source.  It's based
on OpenSSL, and has been heavily audited and reviewed by numerous
experts, so I'm a lot more comfortable with its crypto than I am with
802.11's flavor-of-the-month.  Available for Windows, Mac, and various
*nix'es.  Configuration is a little confusing if you've never dealt
with an X.509 PKI before, but I have.  :)

  We were already using OpenVPN for Internet-based remote access, so I
just kept using it for 802.11 stuff.  Mainly when employees bring
their PCs to conference rooms -- we prefer hardlines whenever
possible.
