IMPORTANT:

Make sure your wireless computers are updated

to work with WPA2 and have the correct settings to get proper
connection to the Router.

Setting WPA Security

Note:

To use WPA security, your wireless network cards must be

equipped with software that supports WPA. At the time this User Manual
was published, a security patch from Microsoft is available for free
download. This patch works only with Windows XP.
Your Router supports WPA-PSK (no server). WPA-PSK uses what is
known as a pre-shared key as the security key. A pre-shared key is
basically a password that is between eight and 39 characters long. It
can be a combination of letters, numbers, or characters. Each client
uses the same key to access the network. Typically this is the mode
that will be used in a home environment.
