If you wanted complete and utter security, you'd have to encrypt all sent data with AES and configure the encyrption key manually at each node and the AP so it's never sent over the airways

Bung, I was talking about me. I can tell you have the 802.11 multiple access control algorithm works (Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance) and roughly how different nets can coexist, with the DSSS and OFDM schemes, but I can't help with your current problem. It's great, isn't it?

And yes, I understand the implications of broadcasting the SSID, that's why I said that in theory, if the signal didn't propagate outside your house, then no one would be able to see it anyway.
