Roaming Security

Hi every one,

When a client is roaming to another Access point(Wi-Fi) which it doesn't have WEP or WPA, how should Client secure the connection and encrypt the data which is going back and fort.

I am sure there is way to make a secure connection even when Access pint is not on WEP...

Do you know any resources in this area?

Thank you,

Hi siamak83,
Personally I always leave the access point open but have the network configured so that the access points connect directly to a firewall and you have to use a VPN client in order to connect to the company network.
This approach offers far better security.
