Stunnel over WiFi... need help


Well, the deal is that I'm a to SSL and stunnel. I'm wondering if, A: It's possible to use stunnel to secure an unencrypted wifi connection and B: if it's possible, I need a little guidance. Thanks everyone.

WiFi card: Netgear WG511T (I think) anyways, based on atheros chipset.
Suse 9.2

You could create a vpn and secure it with stunnel:
http://www.stunnel.org/examples/pppvpn.html

That would assume you had a network similar to:
Code:
            [Router]
               |
          [Switch/Hub]---[Wired Clients]
           /        \
        [AP]    [VPN Server]
         /
 [Wireless Clients]
