How private is your wirless?

Depending on who you have a wireless internet connection service there are several levels of security. One level of privacy is the wireless systems ability to use one of several different frequencies to supply the service. Another level of privacy is the range of signal i.e. fast speed but short range or slow speed but long range. A third level of privacy is the strength of encryption of the signal between the modem and the service provider and some ISPs use the same level of encryption as major banks use for international financial transfers
