This is a plot to take away my incandescent light bulbs.

It's actually a plot to take away your gas lamps.

I like the idea of making home wireless security as simple as closing the curtains. Right now I'm broadcasting wifi into my neighbors homes for no good reason and just hope that no one cracks the password.

WPA TKIP.  Ran into problems with WPA2 AES.

WPA TKIP is not too bad, glad you are not using WEP. I can crack WEP passwords in about 3 minutes with the proper signal strength.
