FWIW, I think this would make a good feature request. I agree long passwords are no fun to enter via the remote. A randomly-generated 63-character WPA2/AES setup is as good as you can get with your typical home setup (the only improvement would be periodic password rotation, which is more of an enterprise feature). MAC filtering and SSID hiding do not actually improve security, and in the case of SSID hiding can actually make your computer less secure. In the best-case scenario, they are useless. -- CatBus ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CatBus's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7461 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=55229 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
