In light of the fact that WPA3 has already been HACKED ( at least twice, since it was announced in 2018 ), I keep hearing that "Long And Complicated" WPA2 passwords are the best security measure one can implement today. IF THIS IS TRUE, QUESTION: "How Long" and "How Complicated" can an F-Secure SENSE Router password be?

    Hi @Issues4Life

    Minimum password length is 8, maximum is 63 and as suggested earlier, we suggest using the password generator which will produce a 16-character password.

    You can make use of the Ideas Board to convey your suggestion for the limitless password idea.

    Hi @Issues4Life

    Generally, we will suggest a long multi-word passphrase with combination of numbers and/or capital letter but length is of essence. You may do a combination of words that don't make sense once put together.

    So ideally, 14-15 character is sufficient but some entity even suggest 20. Remember that you don't have to include special characters such as "öäå" that some device wifi settings might not support. Primarily, just focus more on ensuring that your devices are updated. This is equally important!

    Jaims ...

    Thank you.

    And I agree with you ...

    Still, exactly, how long can an F-Secure SENSE Router password be?

    Again, thank you in advance.

    Hi @Issues4Life

    We would suggest you to use the included password generator which will produce 16 character password.

    Jaims ...

    We're looking at starting with "64" character passwords ...

    Is there a password character limit for the F-Secure SENSE Router ?

    Or, can we implement passwords of "any limit" on our F-Secure SENSE Router ?

    Limitless passwords would be awesome ...

    Thank you for your time ...
