Hi,

the most common way to protect a wireless network is to use the WEP 
encryption. Most access points and Windows XP drivers do support it as 
well as DriverLoader. Under Linux, you can generally set a WEP key using 
the network configuration tool. Please read the documentation that came 
with your access point for more details about wireless security.
