Hi,

I'm trying to set up wireless at an office to use WPA (WPA-PSK) authentication. The first few computers connected perfectly, but the next two told me my key had to be 40bits or 104bits meaning it's using WEP right?

So I go to configure the connection and the only options under Authentication are Open and Shared. On the computers that worked, the options are Open, Shared, WPA, WPA-PSK. Both the problem computer and a working computer are running XP pro 2002 sp2. What's causing this difference??

nic driver?

csamuels,
You're right, thanks for your reply. The thing that was confusing me was that I tried linksys' updated driver that was specifically supposed to address this problem, and it did nothing. Don't know why, but recommended they buy newer adapters and get up to speed.

So to anyone having the same problem, the problem lies either in your NIC driver (search for an newer one on the manufacturer's website) or you need to update Windows (which you should be doing anyway!)
