WPA Possible?


My Wireless card worked right out of the box....

Very impressive! but does anyone know if I can get WPA to work instead of WEP?

Probably.

Did you try?

Anything specific you wanted to say, or are you going to leave us hanging?

I found 'networkmanager' handles all of that very well and is less of a faff to deal with than working with wpa_supplicant directly.
