Wireless security. How do I know it's safe?

I'm planning on setting up a wirless LAN at my home. How do I know for certain that it's secure and encrypted? And what is the most secure hardware/software to do this? Thanks

1. Be sure to change the default password on the router, and use WPA or WPA2 encryption.
2. anything can be hacked, check out a few wireless sites.
3. Pick a complex SSID name Disable SSID broadcasting. Add the MACs of all the PCs to the filter. Switch the router to WPA-PSK or WPA2 Enter a very complex WPA(2)-PSK passphrase Save all the settings in the router For details visit: Quickest Guide to Wireless Security (Ever) by Rob Hallock http://www.short-media.com/articles/wireless_security
