I'm new to wifi... I want to add a wifi card
to my laptop and use it at hotspots when I
travel. I will be looking at my bank statements
and other sensitive sites that require my soc.# and
password. Will I be secure from prying eyes??
What can I do to be secure? Many thanks from
an old retired traveler..

Hi alslo
Your security is kinda the same when you access
the Internet through wired or wireless means. It is
the website that is supposed to give you
security through encryption and other means. If you
are using a public wireless Internet service, they
should also be able to give some level of
security. Just because you got your wireless card,
anyone cannot connect to you. You have to connect
to them first.
