supports WPA. Nevertheless, the wireless adapter hardware and driver must also support WPA.

Consult the product document for your wireless adapter and WPA client software for instructions

on configuring WPA settings.

To configure WPA-PSK, follow these steps:

1.

Log in at the default LAN address of
