>&#13; There are many concerns with the security of wireless networks and
public access areas such as libraries or dormitories. These
concerns are not met with current security implementations. A work
around has been proposed by using an authentication gateway. This
gateway addresses the security concerns by forcing the user to
authenticate in order to use the network.
