CLICKY 400,000 attempts per second.  Why on earth would a WiFi router (access point etc) even accept anywhere near that many attempts to logon a second? Surely a security feature limiting the hardware to, say, ten attempts a second would prevent this. |

The router isn't "accepting" anything. You capture some packets of information, and then apply the brute-force to those packets. |
