Note: Not all wireless adapters support WPA. Furthermore, client software is required on
the client. Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 or above do
include the client software that supports WPA. The wireless adapter hardware and
driver must also support WPA. Consult the product documentation for your
wireless adapter and WPA client software for instructions on configuring WPA
settings.
