I don't disagree with you there, but at lease the wire it's going over can't easily be accessed. Plus, my firewall prohibits radius queries from anyone but trusted hosts. Agreed it would be nice, but it's what I have to work with. I don't want to do mac access lists in each AP ....

The whole point of the shared secret is that it never goes over the wire, in *any* form. The Orinoco equipment should be passing *another* string in the password field.
