I should clarify that statement to say "I believe it transmits in the clear..." There may be some default or base-level encryption at work, although I doubt it. Having setup around 10 of the SES units for clients, I've observed that it generates the key and negotiates the WPA with the first client. It seems to be about a 3 minute period before it kicks into the encrypted mode. After that you have to either manually copy the key to additional clients or set the AP into the key negotiation mode again. All of that makes me think that its sends the key in the clear.wrzwaldo wrote:That's farking brilliant!
I should really sniff the traffic some time to see exactly how it does it. Hmmmm, that might make a good article or paper.
