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� 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 63 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�
