You are correct. I just went and looked at my wireless router, and I'm
using AES. I remember hearing about how feeble TKIP was 4 years ago,
and immediately switched protocols on my home router from TKIP to AES.
B^/ I just couldn't remember which was which.
I'm waiting for the next level new security that is unbreakable before
buying my next new home wireless router. B^)
I do not think there is one, nor will there be one
(for public use).
The gov would not allow it's dissemination, and
for good reason: can you imagine how easily it
would be taken advantage of by criminals to
cause damage? Perhaps there already are so
called "ubreakable" methods being used by
criminals, spies, ...etc. I don't really know.
All the "allowed" methods that you can access,
download and use, can be easily broken
by the gov/nsa. So, I gave up on the notion
of unbreakable wifi protection long before wifi
was so wide spread.
