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:
