That's sad.  I guess it'll be next year at the best (not just that there are no current ones, but add on top supply chain issues, plus semiconductors issues).  Perhaps I wast some money to work around my current issues, and evaluate later.  The sad thing is that WPA3 is not available in most APs, unless wifi 6...

Thanks a lot !
