I thought the passphrase had to be at least 12 characters, not just 8!

Wait, does WPA-PSK really convert the passphrase into a 256-bit key? Sounds odd.

Okay, let's see here. I know WPA provides better security than WEP, and the passphrase length is important. I'll carefully read through each option.

Okay, I've got a strategy here. I'll first check the browser settings to see if any pop-up blocking is enabled, either at the OS or browser level. If not, I'll look into the cookie and browsing history as potential culprits. Gotta cover all the bases!

Hmm, the aggregate function in the trigger seems like the most straightforward solution to me. I'd probably start there and see if I can get that working.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the question. Does "Select the applicable options" mean I should choose the three most relevant capabilities, or are there exactly three correct answers? I'll need to think this through carefully.
