Connecting to a Network With Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) Security Requirements

The following instructions are basic steps for connecting to a WPA network. If your network requires a user name, password, or domain settings, consult the setup instructions in the user’s guide for your wireless network card.

NOTE: WPA protocols require that you know the network authentication and data encryption settings for your wireless network. In addition, your WPA-protected network may require special settings such as a network key, user name, password, and domain name.

1In the Preferred networks field, click the name of your wireless network.

2Click Properties.

3From the Network Authentication drop-down menu, select your network authentication type.

If you are using a WPA-protected network, and the Association tab does not give you the option to select WPA, download the WPA wireless security update from the Microsoft support site.
