Passwords In Securing Network Devices "if you do not use WPA2 for your WiFi then you are doing it wrong." - what if the home devices don't support it? For example, I flashed the ROM of the printer I mentioned above to support WPA instead of just WEP, but I hoped for a WPA2 upgrade and didn't find it. |

Passwords In Securing Network Devices Thanks for the added entropy idea, I might try it with the generator I already have (which works on Windows). As for writing the password down, this is what I had in mind. Short of losing it, something that's set up and done would work to just have the password in a safe. My main concern was it being a home device which isn't necessarily monitored for outside traffic. |

Passwords In Securing Network Devices 3. So the answer is that I'm thinking okay on this. 4. Already bothered, and might make a storage function someday. Just was asking to see if anyone had any ideas. Overall, though, it seems like this is fine if this is the consensus opinion. |

Passwords In Securing Network Devices 1. I ask this because I've encountered situations where certain printable characters are not allowed. For example, a wireless printer that only allows 8 symbol characters in addition to the alphabet and numerals for passwords. I've read in different places that Linux/Unix doesn't play well with spaces in the password as well. So this is why I'm asking. |
