The wi-fi is outside the firewall. Then there's additional VPN to get through the firewall. Done this way, there are no security issues that aren't already an issue when providing VPN in the first place.

I've been attempting to push for Wifi access, especially with Mabugz (since I use Bugzilla all day long), but thanks to our parent company's major security concerns, it won't happen.

There's a poll option missing: "yes, but I have been unable to use my 770/N800 with it".

Yes, but perhaps not as transparently as you could wish -- openvpn and other vpns should have been supported as hooks integrated into the built-in NIT networking setup. Which currently isn't the case.

Just for fun, to see how many companies allow WiFi access to their private LAN network.
