I've decided as its going to be over a large area a Wireless WAN would be the best option but I'm not sure of the benefits this would have over a wire based network (apart from the obvious fact that its wireless :P) also what sort of methods (apart from basic firewalls etc) could be used to keep the network data secure?

even the most basic of help would be appreciated.

ifcfg-wireless

IFCFG(5)						       Network configuration							  IFCFG(5)

NAME

       ifcfg-wireless - wireless LAN network interface configuration

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan-*
       /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-type-wlan

GENERAL

       Wireless  networks  need  some additional configuration data compared to ethernet ones. Therefore additional variables for ifcfg files were
       introduced.  All wireless LAN specific variables are described in the ifcfg template file /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg.template. It is pos-
       sible to configure more than one wireless network accepted for association. To achieve this add suffix _1 to all wireless variables for the
       second network, _2 for the this, and so on. Example: WIRELESS_ESSID_1="second_net" You can have up to  ten  wireless  networks  configured.
       Some  wireless  variables  are not applicable to a single wireless network but are global to the interface. The description of the variable
       points this out.
