Does anyone know if Microsoft are planning on providing
WPA support for the X-box Wireless adapter. I understand
that the chipset supports it and right know I have to
reduce the security of my other wireless devices due to
the lack of support on the MN-740.

Might want to ask that on the Xbox web site, Lee. They're the ones handling
the MN-740 configuration and capabilities. I haven't heard anything about
an update for the MN-740. Sort of a bummer to run WPA for security, but not
be able to if you're using the MN-740.

As far as I know, the MN-740 won't be updated to support WPA-PSK.

As Barb mentioned, there will be no updates for the mn-
740 regarding WPA standards.
