Never trust the security of a wireless system

If you want a high security network then it must be wired. You can make a wireless system reasonably secure but with all of the necessary encryption and other security measures the system will be very hard to use will still not be as secure as a well set up wired network. In other words if you want to do casual stuff wireless is fine. But if you want to do stuff like on line banking, or shopping I will NEVER! do this on a wireless anything.
