www.dell.com | support.dell.com 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. 1 In the Preferred networks field, click the name of your wireless network. 2 Click Properties. 3 From 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. 52 Setting Up a Home and Office Network
