FWIW, I have 4 128-bit keys (which I rotate thru every now and then),
filter out MACs to only those that are mine and I don't (actively)
broadcast my SSID. The only destination you can get to on the local
'net is my proxy box' SSH port, and the admin port (changed p/w, no
WAN access) on the NetGear thingy. I figure if someone goes thru the
trouble of sniffing and analysing enough traffic to get past those
to get to the general 'net (and there's other out-the-box-open APs
in my complex that make easier targets), I say "Congratulations" to
'em; have fun. :-)
(What's an "FE"?!)
