in the Passphrase box. The Passphrase must be 8 to 63 characters in length. The 256 Bit key
used for encryption is generated from this passphrase.

How to Configure WPA2-PSK
To configure WPA2-PSK, follow these steps:
1. Log in at the default LAN address of http://192.168.1.1, with the default user name of admin
and default password of password, or using whatever LAN address and password you have
set up.
Note: Not all wireless adapters support WPA2. Furthermore, client software is required
on the client. Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 do include the
client software that supports WPA2. Nevertheless, the wireless adapter hardware
and driver must also support WPA2. Consult the product document for your
wireless adapter and WP2 client software for instructions on configuring WPA2
settings.
