Wifi network security is a hobson’s choice. You can either set up an open access point with no security at all that anyone can access, or you can set up an encrypted access point, but people have to have a password or other credential setup with you beforehand in order to access your access point. There is currently no secure way to set up an open access point that has encryption and authentication of the network provider. We think it’s possible, and we call it Secure Open Wireless Access.
