My recommendation would be to use either CISCO or AirDefense
(http://www.airdefense.net) wireless devices /w the design mentioned by
everyone so far...

One thing to note, however, is that changing your SSID really doesn't
provide any added security, rather, it only adds to your daily management
nightmare... ;)

Subject: Wireless LAN Security for Warehouse
Sensitivity: Private

My company is looking into wireless technology for our warehouse to replace
our RF devices. I have been tasked to research which techonolgy
we should use. Right now, we are looking into symbol. They seem to
have a good infrastructure. What is your opinion on their product's
security? Can anyone recommend any other wireless products or recommend
certain security requirements that I should look for in these devices?

Thanks for any help!

Kind Regards,
