I am having difficulty setting up Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) security and I am NOT using a Belkin Wireless Card for a home network.

Solution:

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 manufacturer supports WPA and that you have downloaded and installed the latest driver from their support site.
