Install the Patch for WPA2 with Microsoft WLAN
Service
The WLAN connection to FRITZ!Box cannot be established
using the Microsoft WLAN Service (WZC) in Windows XP
Service Pack 2.
Possible Cause
The required Microsoft patch for WPA2 (IEEE 802.11i) may
not be not installed.
Remedy
Support for WPA2 in Microsoft WLAN service was not
available until the current patch for Windows XP Service
Pack 2. Install the current patch from Microsoft:
support.microsoft.com/kb/917021
Alternatively, you can install Service Pack 3 instead.
Ruling Out Interference Cause by Other Wireless
Networks
If there are other devices in the immediate vicinity of your
FRITZ!Box that use the 2.4-GHz band, simultaneous use of
frequencies can result in mutual interference (for exam-
ple, fluctuations or interrupted connections). Disruptions
can also be caused by other WLAN access points, or by
Bluetooth devices, garage door openers or wireless AV
bridges. In this case, please test a different radio channel
for your FRITZ!Box.
1.

cable. Proceed as described in the section "Connect-
