Wpa3 support in OpenWrt?

  • does OpenWRT support WPA3? Yes, for official release, since 19.07 with wpad-openssl. wpad-wolfssl has been fixed in master/development
  • does it require special hardware? No AFAIK
  • any negative issues (like lower performance on older hardware)? In my test case no, the WLAN speed seems to be CPU-bound even without encryption, others with more experience may chime in?
  • a word about compatibility with other devices (like the mentioned Apple issue) You can go ahead and add later when people report other incompatibilities
  • is mixed WPA2/WPA3 really more secure than just WPA2? I read that exclusive WPA3 is better, but forgot the details. see reply of huaracheguarache
  • is WPA/WPA2/WPA3 mixed mode possible? (I see no support for it currently, but what in theory?)
    no idea, but why would anyone still use WPA?
