I am NoT using a belkin client card for a home network and I am
having difficulty setting up Wireless Protected access (WPa)
security�
If you are not using a Belkin Wireless Desktop or Wireless Notebook
Network Card that is not equipped with WPA-enabled software, a
file from Microsoft called “Windows XP Support Patch for Wireless
Protected Access” is available for free download . Download the patch
from Microsoft by searching the knowledge base for Windows XP WPA .
Note
: The file that Microsoft has made available works only with
Windows XP . Other operating systems are not supported at this time .
You also need to ensure that the wireless card’s manufacturer supports
WPA and that you have downloaded and installed the latest driver from
their support site .
Supported Operating Systems:
• Windows XP Professional
• Windows XP Home Edition

further information .
