Problem:
Do Belkin products support WPA?

note: To use WPA security, all your clients must be upgraded to drivers
and software that support it At the time of this FAQ publication, a
security patch download is available, for free, from Microsoft This patch
works only with the Windows XP operating system

Problem:
I am having difficulty setting up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) security
on a Belkin Wireless Router or Belkin Access Point for a home network
solution:
1 From the “Security Mode” drop-down menu, select “WPA-PSK
(no server)”
2 For “Encryption Technique”, select “TKIP” or “AES” This setting
will have to be identical on the clients that you set up
3 Enter your pre-shared key (PSK) This can be from eight to 63
characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols or spaces
This same key must be used on all of the clients that you set up
For example, your PSK might be something like: “Smith family
network key”
4 Click “Apply Changes” to finish You must now set all clients to
match these settings
