Best way to implement wireless?

Hi,

I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction how to best implement wireless in our corporate lan. I'm using ASL 4.x and would like to give some employees access to internet, mail and to out fileserver with good security.

From what i understand, i should use some sort of vpn-login through the firewall to get it more secure, right?

What kind of wireless-hardware would be the best for this? And how should it work?

I have not yet bought any wireless-hardware, i want to make sure to know what i need before i buy anything.

We have two floors in the house, but i will start with one floor, and later on expand it to the other floor

Ideas and tips are very welcome

Thanks in advance

3. Is the Astaro Secure Client only available for Windows? I have a few apple computers with OSX.

I think the ASC itself is only availabe for Windows. But ASC is based on the NCP Secure Client which is available for at least Windows and Linux. So it should be possible to run it on OSX.

Yep, try out the NCP client for Linux.

As far as which 3COM unit to pick, check out their website... just make sure it supports WPA.. they have several models, some that are 802.11G only, some that are 802.11B/G, and some that are 802.11A/B/G compatible.
