I was impressed by the device until I saw in the user's guide that the WPA/WPA2 passphrase (aka password) must be between 8 and 13 characters. Is this a typo? For minimal security a WPA/WPA2 passphrase must be at least 20 characters. And the maximum is 63 characters, not 13.

If this is not a typo in the UG it makes one wonder if they are concerned about security and what other corners they cut.

Can someone who has one of these check if the 8 - 13 is a typo or not?
