Regarding piggybacking:
Easiest way to stop it is MAC address filtering. Then WEP.
Of course the best method (if you have Cisco gear) is LEAP...not only tough as hell to crack, but it requires cisco hardware to use it. This is how I plan to go in a few months, LEAP over 802.11a. Different frequency spectrum, so the snot-nosed brat next door won't be able to boot my connection anymore, and it will be pretty much intruder free.
I have no problem opening up an 802.11b connection for someone that needs it, but they need to knock on my door and introduce first...I dislike anonymous people using a line that I could be held liable for if they do something illegal on it.
