Hi, all. I recently installed a home network on three Dell desktops running
XP Professional with SP2 and all critical updates installed. One desktop is
connected via Ethernet cable to a Belkin Wireless Cable/DSL Gateway Router
(model F5D7230-4, version 1110) that has been updated with the most recent
firmware. The other two desktops are connected via Belkin Wireless Desktop
Network Cards with the most recent drivers. Both cards are model F5D7000,
but one card is version 1133, while the other card is version 1010. The
network works fine when I do not use WEP or WPA encryption. However, when I
try to use WPA-PSK/TKIP encryption, the desktops connected to the router by
the Ethernet cable and the F5D7000 card, version 1133, work fine, but the
desktop with the version 1010 card does not give me the option of selecting
WPA encryption--it's not on the drop down list in the XP wireless
configuration utility; I can only select WEP or Disabled. Belkin Tech
Support insists this is a Windows issue. Any thoughts? Thanks.
