It is WPA2-Enterprise (AES) even. Which is a reasonably ok Settings for Windows 8 for Windows are at: http://www.upc-cablecom.ch/content/dam/www-upc-cablecom-ch/Support/wifi-spots/steps/windows8/Anleitung%20Wi-Free_Windows%208_0714_e.pdf or platforms can be found at: http://www.upc-cablecom.ch/en/internet/wi-free/ As it is a thing crossing both Comcast + LibertyGlobal (and one can thus use Comcast logins on LG Wi-Free and vice versa...), I can only guess it is the exact same thing. Still, from a radio perspective and the spectrum being pretty full already, I don't like it a bit. Greets, Jeroen
