I don't buy that, I haven't seen anything that supports the notion
that spoofing a MAC address is perfunctory. WEP, yes but let's take
a step back. The best defense is to hide in plain sight. Turn off
broadcasting. You can't hack into what you can't see, or don't know
is there. I know of no good reason to have public broadcast of a
private WAP. Use a password like SSID, turn off broadcasting, and
enable MAC addressing and you have won most of the battle. Add WPA
encryption, and your done.
Or just enable WPA encryption with a random, 63 character
password. Why go through the rest of it, when WPA has been proven
secure when a good password is used. Or am I missing something?
