Note:
To use WPA security, all your clients must be upgraded to
drivers and software that support WPA security. At the time of
this publication, a security patch download is available, for free,
from Microsoft. This patch works only with the Windows XP
operating system.
You can find the patch to download from Microsoft by searching the
knowledge base for Windows XP WPA. Click on the “Downloads”
link. You will find a page entitled “Windows XP Support Patch for
Wi-Fi Protected Access”.

Wireless Desktop or Notebook Network Card from the Belkin
support site. Other operating systems are not supported at this
time. Microsoft’s patch only supports devices with WPA-enabled
drivers such as Belkin 802.11g products.
