WPA

Hi

I have a Dimension 8400 approx 3 years old and am changing to a BT hub, does the dimension support WPA and if not is there a software download available.

I am new to this so please forgive any errors in posting etc, many thanks.

    The Dimension is not the factor. It is your wireless card and the version of OS you are running. IF you are running XP SP2 or greater then the OS will handle the WPA if you are going to use Windows to manage the wireless adapter. If you are not going to use windows to manage the adapter then you need to check the specs on the particular adapter you have installed in your system.
