Overall, A and B seem like the main issues for me.
BR

D is frustrating. Delays in certification hurt adoption.
LE

C is a problem for older devices. They can't handle it.
AM
Amber

But B makes sense too. Lack of standards slowed things down.

Agreed, sharing keys can lead to serious vulnerabilities.
RE

I think option A is a big concern. Security is crucial.
DO

B) and D) together really stalled OKC's rollout.

Wait, D) really? I thought the Wi-Fi Alliance was on it.
AS

C) was a major issue, legacy devices just couldn't keep up.
PA

Totally agree with B), no standards really held things back.
ED

A) is spot on, those vulnerabilities were a big deal.

Processor-intensive crypto, that's a real killer for old hardware. C is the winner.
CA

Haha, the Wi-Fi Alliance must have been sleeping on the job with option D!
CO

C is the correct answer. Legacy devices couldn't handle the crypto overhead.
KA

I agree, option B makes sense. Lack of standards would delay adoption.

I feel like the delays from the Wi-Fi Alliance were a significant factor too. It’s frustrating when certification processes hold back technology like OKC.
RO

I think the lack of standards played a big role in delaying client support. It seems like every time I looked into OKC, there were issues with compatibility.
LI
Lindsey

I remember reading about how sharing cached keys could lead to vulnerabilities, but I'm not sure if that was the main reason for the slow adoption of OKC.
DA
Dana

Ugh, this is the kind of question I struggle with. All these technical details about Wi-Fi protocols and certifications - it's just not my strong suit. I'll have to take my best guess and hope for the partial credit.

I feel pretty confident about this one. The key seems to be identifying the main reasons why OKC wasn't widely adopted at first, like the lack of standards and client support. I think I can narrow this down to the best answer.
RO

Okay, I've got a strategy here. I need to carefully read through each option and think about how those factors could have impacted the early acceptance of OKC. Gotta make sure I understand the technical concepts involved.
SH
Shaun

Option A seems plausible. Sharing keys could definitely create vulnerabilities.
AN
Annice

I vaguely recall something about the cryptography being too heavy for older devices. Was it TKIP that struggled with the key exchanges?
AM
Amber

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I think I need to focus on understanding the key drawbacks that initially prevented widespread adoption of OKC. The options mention things like vulnerabilities, lack of standards, and performance issues.
LI
Lino

I'm a bit confused by this question. It seems to be asking about some technical details of Opportunistic Key Caching that I'm not too familiar with.
AH
Ahmed

All these factors combined made it tough for OKC to take off.
AL
Albert
5 months ago
What about the issues with older devices? They struggled with the cryptography.
TR
Troy

I read that sharing cached keys was a big vulnerability too.
NE
Nell

I think the lack of standards really hurt OKC's adoption.
JO
Josephine

Yeah, and the delays from the Wi-Fi Alliance didn't help either.
