Security vulnerabilities with fast roaming

2022-04-27 20:28:42 - last edited 2022-04-27 20:29:43

Model: Deco P9

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version: 1.1.3 Build 20201228 Rel 55057

In October 2017, there was the CRACK vulnerability with 802.11r (fast roaming), and in August 2018, there was another vulnerability. I know these are old issues, but they affected all vendors. Is it safe to enable fast roaming (in app under advanced settings) on my Deco P9?

Incidentally, when it warns "some older wireless devices" may be disconnected, how old is "older"?
