Hi Folks

Some clarity on these times to break please!

Is this done by snooping the traffic that is going between the computer and
router or by bombarding the router with various keys until it responds?

Anyone know for sure?  I know a couple of guys who work on computer
crypotography and they quote figures like a million transfered packets to
get the key reliably .... and they know cos they've done it.

Thanks for the replies. The 2091 I got on ebay was already unlocked.

Thanks again
