Agreed. In real life,it turns out that, as a remainder of the MS monopoly,
_all_ vendors of WiFi clients MUST support and test MS-CHAPv2 properly to
survive commercially -- counterexamples welcome :-)
They MAY support PAP in addition. With a server side not speaking MS-CHAPv2,
odds are your life gets harder, especially if you're running a BYOD service.

Cheers, Martin
