    AES if implemented correctly is 10 time better then having an open ethernet port outside your house. For the love of God people, please understand cryptography before making un-informed comments about how weak this will be.

  6. its about time on Stronger Encryption for Wi-Fi · · Score: 3, Insightful

    you guys can piss and moan all you want but AES is rock solid. This is a great solution for those who don't have time resources or knowledge to use 802.11x with RADIUS. Finanaly a secure encruption scheme for home users who know absolutely nothing about encryption and how it works. I give it 2 thumbs up :)
