By what? I use WPA2 at home with a >20 character password, and it works
fine. The only exception is that NetworkManager in FC4 (which is what I
have on my laptop) does not seem to support (any) WPA.

Since I have written a wpa_supplicant config file, starting it manually
isn't that much of a hassle though.
