The funny thing is Vista shows even the "hidden" ones now. Wireless security sucks there are ways around a majority of the standard security stuff. WEP is the worse and there is no reason to run it unless you are connecting something real old. Even the Tivo's are now updated so they don't use WEP anymore. That’s why the best way to implement wireless is to put it in a DMZ then they need to VPN in from there.
