I fully agree.
What is broken is the WPS procedure and NOT the pre-shared key procedure. If you do not have WPS with an eight digit PIN on your router then you should be OK.
I have the Netgear WNDR3400, it does have WPS, but I do not use it so I should be OK - IF - WPS is really disabled as the menu claims. Some routers (unknown which) actually continue to transmit WPS even if it is disabled in the router menu.
You should be OK.
Thank you.
