How to Configure WPA with Radius

Note: Not all wireless adapters support WPA. Furthermore, client software is required on
the client. Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 do include the
client software that supports WPA. Nevertheless, the wireless adapter hardware
and driver must also support WPA. Consult the product document for your wireless
adapter and WPA client software for instructions on configuring WPA settings.
To configure WPA with Radius, follow these steps:
1. Log in at the default LAN address of http://192.168.1.1 with the default user name of admin
and default password of password, or using whatever LAN address and password you have
set up.
