It's probably just rather low on their priority queue. I'd imagine they aim to fix the problems without reasonable workarounds first. WPA/TKIP is a reasonably secure and practical option for the VAST majority of their customers. While it's true that WPA may have been a design compromise, it's a rather good one. And if tools do emerge that enable Joe Sixpack to hack WPA, you can bet Slim will place more emphasis on a timely fix. I'm genuinely curious, why are you chomping so hard for AES? Is your Squeezebox on a business essential network? If so, it might be a good idea to move it to a dedicated wireless segment. For what it's worth, Slim is not notably behind the curve with 802.11i. The vast majority of SOHO WLANs are still using WEP. In due time, I'm sure they will have it working. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
