WPA attacked

WPA is no longer considered secure. Consumers are advised to use WPA2 only. Bad news as most products don't support WPA2 and thus $ needs to be spent on upgrades.

Correction: The flaw is not in the WPA protocol but a weakness in TKIP encryption. Utilise AES when using either WPA or WPA2 in your environment.
