Problem:
I am NOT using a Belkin client card and I am having difficulty setting
up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) security for a home network.
Solution:
If you are NOT using a Belkin Wireless Desktop or Wireless
Notebook Network Card and it is not equipped with WPA-enabled
software, a file from Microsoft called “Windows XP Support Patch
for Wireless Protected Access” is available for free download:
www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=009d8425-
ce2b-47a4-abcc-2748dc9e91diplaylang=en
Note: The file that Microsoft has made available works only with
Windows XP. Other operating systems are not supported at this
time. You also need to ensure that the wireless card manufacturer
supports WPA and that you have downloaded and installed the
latest driver from their support site.
Supported Operating Systems:
• Windows XP Professional
• Windows XP Home Edition
Enabling WPA-PSK (no server):
1. Under Windows XP, click “Start > Control Panel >
Network Connections”.
2. Right-click on the “Wireless Networks” tab. Ensure the “Use
Windows to configure my wireless network settings” check box
is selected.
3. Under the “Wireless Networks” tab, click the “Configure” button.
4. For a home or small business user, select “WPA-PSK” under
“Network Administration”.
