I mean if you really care about security you're not using wifi... you're going hard wired. Wifi can be messed up by your neighbors unintentionally and then there goes your tampering alarm. Tampering alarms are good when the system isn't fragile.

No security installer is going to suggest wifi if someone's genuinely concerned about security.
