My wireless users are in the building when they need wireless access.
They can plug in with a wire to 100Mbps, but they find it easier to just
use the wireless. They use it to access both the local LAN and the
Internet. We have a Cisco PIX firewall for the wired LAN, and the
wireless blocks all connections except for a hand-maintained list
of MAC addresses.
