Hi Mike,
We use a WPA2-802.1x network wherever possible, but we do provide a
WPA2-PSK network for use with games consoles in halls of residence.
We built a home-grown system where a user has to register the MAC
address of their console in our web interface. The MAC is validated and
the user is given the WPA2 key on their screen. Only registered MAC
addresses can connect to the SSID.
We change the key once per academic year, since the vast majority of
students live in halls for just one year so it causes minimal
inconvenience to users.
Cheers,
Jonathan

Hello,
For those of you using WPA2 personal encryption on your wireless
network, how do you provide the encryption key to your end users? And
how often do you change the key?
Thank you for your input.
