| I think Marek looked into that once and found it didn't support a number
| of basic encryption schemes.
| Also, at that time, development on Intel's side seemed to be pretty much
| dead.
| Maybe both is better now, not sure...
| Marek, do you remember more details?

Marek's findings seem to be here:

But actually considering that right now we have nothing workable (Hm,
Marek closed this bug that our Wifi UI is useless with WONTFIX) WPA-only
support that was solid would be fine and we should target it, since WEP
is about as good as no encryption nowadays.  Even so another post hints
they can in fact do WEP via wpa_supplicant

Any way to auto-acquire association and DHCP remembering auth will make
the Wifi ten times more useful than it is now.
