Subject: ALERT: WPA-TKIP isn't secure - use WPA2 instead
SUMMARY:

   WPA-PSK is vulnerable to offline attack.
   WPA-TKIP has been cracked.

TO AVOID THESE PROBLEMS:

1. USE WPA-AES or WPA2 instead of WPA-TKIP (or WEP)

2. USE A PASSPHRASE WITH MORE THAN 20 CHARACTERS.  Examples:
      BAD: "vintage wine"
      GOOD: "floor hiking dirt ocean"
         (pick your own words, even longer is better)
   FOR HIGH SECURITY, USE MORE THAN 32 CHARACTERS.
