Hello:
 
I have sort of the same config, but using linksys.  Make sure the wap is setup 
allowing only your mac address access -- filtered mac addresses.   Also, do not 
broadcast the SSID.  
 
Have fun!

running isa server as the firewall
        
        

        http://www.ISAserver.org
        
        
        I have a SBS2000 machine running isa server as the firewall for my home
        network.
        
        I recently purchased a d-link WAP and was wondering if I needed a third
        network card in my server to allow my laptop to connect to the network
        using wireless.
        
        Based on what I have read, setting up a vpn tunnel would ensure the most
        secure connection for a wireless session.
        
        However, if I am running isa server on the same box as my gateway and 
have
        setting allowing only domain users access to the server, casual roaming
        wireless users would not be able to get anywhere even if they did gain
        access to the WAP.
        
        Am I wrong in this assumption? 
        
        Thanks for any help you can give me
