i have a new question.
We can access the internal network via a WIFI network and my job is
actually to secure this connection.

the openVPN server is in the internal network(so he has an Ip from this
internal network).
The remote client is a wireless laptop with an IP of the wireless LAN.
Is it possible to setup the VPN tunnel from this client to the server even
if they don't belongs to the same IP network?

Yes, as long as the client can reach the openvpn server you can establish a tunnel.


Are they other critical issues when setting up a VPN over a WIFI LAN?

No, setting up a VPN over WIFI is no diffrent than setting up a VPN over wired ethernet.
