setting up dmz for wireless

I have a few questions about configuring a dmz. First of all this is for wireless clients. This is what I palin on blocking all access from the dmz to the internal network thus the purpose if dmz. Should I block all communication from the internal network to the dmz because right now I can ping the wireless ap that in the dmz zone. I've notice that during my process I seem to have 2networks that I'm working with a pptp pool that is a 192.168.25 subnet a dmz zone that is a 192.168.1 subnet. I plain on giving the pptp pool access to the internal lan for things such as accessing shares email server use and web surfing. Can some please tell me if my thought process is corret or if I'm missing something?
 
There is no real relation between the DMZ and the Wireless.

Wireless per-ce has nothing to do with DMZ.

DMZ is a Firewall Internet thing.

Putting a Computer with Wireless Client on the DMZ is like putting there any other computer when you want to open all the ports at once and expose it to the Internet.

Unless you have a good reason No computer should sit on the DMZ Wired or Wireless.

What is DMZ: Link to: Cable/DSL Routers - NAT & Ports.

I'm talking about a real firewall here that has a real dmz port not one of those home router linksys setups. I'm basically hooking up a AP to a sonicwall dmz port. The clients will than vpn back into the lan in order to use internal resources.
