My computer or device doesn't work with WPA, can I still use wireless on my Hub?
It may be possible to upgrade your computer operating system or wireless
adapter to support WPA. Refer to the wireless adapter manufacturer's web site
for more information.
Or you can configure your Hub to use a less secure WEP wireless key (basic security
– less secure than WPA):
If you're connected using wireless, you'll lose your connection to the internet
temporarily when you change your default WEP key. So we recommend that
you print or save this page to your computer now.

To reconnect these, you'll need to use the new key you've just chosen. Follow
the instructions provided with the devices or connection software to find out

it and enter your new key when asked.
