WPA2:
WPA2 is the most secure version, but not all wireless clients already support it. Before you select this
version, make sure all of your wireless clients support it.
WPA+WPA2:
If not all of your wireless clients support WPA2 or you are not sure if they support WPA2, we
recommend you to choose WPA+WPA2. Wireless clients that support WPA2 will use WPA2, the
others will use WPA.
WPA:
If none of your wireless clients support WPA2 choose this option.
4 Click Apply.
5 Configure your wireless client(s) with the same settings.
If you want to configure WPA2 on the built-in wireless utility of Windows XP Service Pack 2
