Mixed mode is forth coming. Can't say when though. We've been asking and push NG about it.

maybe action from an attorney general's office will push them. new technologies have come out and new routers from NG have come out that allow this. They have been saying it is coming for almost 2 years.

Good luck there. LOL. NG is aware of it and working on it. Doesn't come over night.
I heard something about early this year. So Lets be a bit more patient. Also not tons of devices using WPA3 yet either. I know most newer phones and pads have support for it and thats about it. Also it's not a critical item either. Just next new security mode. FYI, WPS3 was already breached. So had same level of security as WPA2 in regards to safety.If you can't be patient then I guess you should find something that does support it now for you since you seem to need it now.
I recommend avoiding talking about things legal items in a negative light, NG doesn't take kindly to that.
