I normally disable the broadcast of the SSID of my wireless betwork as set up on my LinksysWAG54GS router. Turns out that this behaviour is not supported by the driver used by my USB modem (a Linksys WUSB54GS) on Fedora.
Interestingly, some people think that using what I thought was a fairly obvious security feature is pretty pointless.
Have a look here for the fact that WUSB54GS and disabling SSID does not work on Fedora/Linux. It's in black and white under the 'What does not' work section.
As a result, consider upping your WPA password to greater than 20 characters to make it useful!
