WPa2 Requirements
IMPoRTaNT: In order to use WPA2 security, all your computers and
wireless client adapters must be upgraded with patches, driver, and client
utility software that supported WPA2. At the time of this User Manual's
publication, a couple security patches are available, for free download,
from Microsoft . These patches work only with the Windows XP operating
®
system. Other operating systems are not supported at this time.
For Windows XP computers that do not have Service Pack 2
(SP2), a file from Microsoft called "Windows XP Support Patch
for Wireless Protected Access (KB 826942)" is available for
free download at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/826942
For Windows XP with Service Pack 2, Microsoft has
released a free download to update the wireless client
components to support WPA2 (KB971021). The update is
available from: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917021
IMPoRTaNT: You also need to ensure that all your wireless client
cards/adapters support WPA2, and that you have downloaded and
installed the latest driver. Most of the Belkin wireless cards have
driver updates available for download from the Belkin support site:
www.belkin.com/networking.
