In Chit Chat Across the Pond Bart tells us about a dreadful flaw in WPS on most wifi routers (not in Apple Airports luckily). To look up your router to find out if it’s got the flaw and if turning off WPS will actually help, go to https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?key=0Ags-JmeLMFP2dFp2dkhJZGIxTTFkdFpEUDNSSHZEN3c. If yours has the flaw and you want to be daring, install a non-standard router OS like the ones listed here: wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wireless_router_firmware_projects. After that Bart lightens things up with his tutorial on how to take photographs of stars without fancy kit: bartb.ie/blog/?p=2226.
