[ale] wireless security

WPA2 AES only. (TKIP is broken)

Any other options security wise are trivial to bypass..  Like hidden
network, or MAC filtering.

For the more secure option,  put the wireless network isolated from any of
your wired devices, and set up openvpn to connect in once you join the
wireless network.
