Important Notice: In order to use the WPA correctly, make sure that your current wireless router’s driver, and Wireless Utility can support the WPA. The WPA needs 802.1x authentication (when RADIUS mode is chosen), though the Operating System must also support 802.1x protocol. For Microsoft’s OS family, only Windows XP has incorporated this by default. Other operating systems must install a third-party client software.
