Strong wireless security for the SOHO network

It's likely your home users haven't enabled security on their wireless networks. As the go-to guy you can configure security settings for them and hope those users don't mess those settings up, or add software that lets users add and remove new and visiting users (as for when your teen's friends come over) without much effort (or calling you on the phone).That's the idea behind Interlink Networks' LucidLink, which provides enterprise-level wireless security simply enough to use on the home network.

The software uses encryption based on Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), along with advanced authentication techniques to protect network traffic and initial access.lt uses a client/server model to authorize only those clients given specific permission to access the LAN.

WPA provides a higher level of protection than Wired Equivalent Privacy, but it doesn't address user authentication. Granting and revoking access to your wireless network, say, at the beginning and end of a LAN usage cycle, often involves changing the encryption key on every system on the network. LucidLink streamlines this process down to two button clicks.
