Don't count on the key too much. Personally, I'm of the opinion that
you should just firewall off a wireless subnet, leave it open, and
consider it an unsafe zone. Use SSH and other encryption on top of it.
Then, you also get the somewhat warm fuzzy feeling of also allowing
someone else to use your AP... Assuming you want that. :)
It doesn't hurt to leave it open, as long as it's a fully
issolated subnet, and you have to tunnel from it thru the
firewall to your main subnet to get outside connectivity.
Then about the only thing your AP is good for is a local
lan party.
