  • You need to use an EAP (extensible authentication protocol). PEAP is a common one that uses SSL. Make sure clients are configured to verify the AP's certificate. Commented Feb 6, 2015 at 23:16
  • @paj28, that's not AES and even if i use EAP, does it prevent others from capturing handshake? Commented Feb 7, 2015 at 8:07
  • @Saeed - people can capture the handshake, but it protected by SSL, so they can't brute force the password. Makes it safe to use low-entropy passwords. After authentication is complete, PEAP uses WPA2-AES just the same as if you'd used PSK. Commented Feb 7, 2015 at 12:39
  • that seems really great, thanks. is there any requirements for devices to be able to connect using PEAP like firmware upgrade or an app or any ordinary Wifi supported device can connect? Commented Feb 8, 2015 at 20:10
