Hardening WIFI

[Michael Butash]

Ensure you're only using wpa2-aes (no tkip, or mix wpa1-2), and use a very
long psk string.  Ensure your clients aren't vulnerable to the blueborne
and other wifi ota exploits.  Not much else you can do really unless you
want to run a radius and/or cert pki in-house to do eap-tls, or peap.  You
can crack against wpa2, but unless using an easy string, it's not easy or
assured they will figure out your string.

I use a 32char random string, special characters, really annoying when
adding new devices, but I don't worry about someone cracking it.
