Hey all, I made a patch to make the Hotspot password random.

It uses the name of a fruit with 4 random digits appended to it. Example random 
passwords are: kiwi2819, banana1910, grape2617

Is this really enough entropy that it couldn't be brute-forced fairly
quickly? Going through a few tends of thousands of passwords surely
will only take a few [1] minutes

Could/should we use [2] instead?

That'd be challenging in that we'd have to create a rich wordlist to pick from, right? I wouldn't want to type in all the things we can find in en_us_wordlist.xml. Also, a random wordlist isn't as easy to remember as a personally picked wordlist.
