10.15 Wireless Client WPA Supplicants
A wireless client supplicant is the software that runs on an operating system instructing the
wireless client how to use WPA. At the time of writing, the most widely available supplicants
are the WPA patch for Windows XP, Funk Software's Odyssey client, and Meetinghouse Data
Communications' AEGIS client.
The Windows XP patch is a free download that adds WPA capability to Windows XP's built-
in "Zero Configuration" wireless client. However, you must run Windows XP to use it.
10.16 Wireless Card
Note: Turn the ZyWALL off before you install or remove the wireless LAN card. See
the product specifications appendix for a table of compatible ZyXEL WLAN
cards (and the WLAN security features each card supports) and how to install a
WLAN card.
You can install either a ZyWALL Turbo Card or a wireless card, but not both at
the same time. When you have a wireless card installed, you cannot use the
anti-virus and IDP features.
If you are configuring the ZyWALL from a computer connected to the wireless LAN and you
change the ZyWALL’s ESSID or security settings, you will lose your wireless connection
when you press Apply to confirm. You must then change the wireless settings of your
computer to match the ZyWALL’s new settings.
Click NETWORK > WIRELESS CARD to open the Wireless Card screen. The screen
varies according to the security features you select.
