So if I was to be semi-paranoid, what encryption system should I jump to? I run WPA2 but is there something higher that your commercial airport extreme can do?

Technically, the best is WPA2 w/ RADIUS, but it is a pain to setup and even harder to manage.

Agree, WPA2 w/RADIUS would be best for a business with tech support. However, without a full-time staff to support it, WPA2-PSK is going to be what 99% of users (SOHO and SMB) will want or need.

I would defiantly recommend staying far away from WPS. This can be cracked in matter of day or two in absolute best case, but I have seen a network fall in literally the first second of the attack....

It is wise to use WPa2 with very random and long phasephrase. Also, turn off the WPS button because reaver, a tool in backtrack and Kali linux can brute force the 8 digit WPS pin
