i'm a student majoring in computer network management. currently i'm taking a class called "principles of security I" that would probably be right up your alley.
this morning, our instructor set up a wireless access point and then challenged us to access the network w/it. at first it was easy, then he killed the SSID broadcast, then put in some WEP encryption (had to break out the airsnort). one of my favorite computer classes so far.
our textbook is "Security+ Guide To Network Security Fundamentals" the book does a pretty good job, so i guess i can reccomend it. but honestly, i haven't looked at many others to have a good perspective on what else is out there.
call around to local schools to see if they offer similar courses. even community colleges sometimes offer things like this for cheap tuition rates. if you live in Oklahoma (doubtful), i can at least provide info for one school's program. lol, take care.
