	Due to the insecurity of noisebridge's open network Carl is attempting to get secure networks in place to allow noisebridge patrons a secure environment for transmission of data, as well as testing. secure networks will include WEP, WPA, and WPA2. hacking is encouraged however any changed settings should be recorded on network change logs.		==Maintenance==
