Try downloading and installing the WPA2 update for XP. If it still doesn't work, I suspect your XP wireless NIC doesn't support wpa2. You may have to buy a new one. Jerry

Check out this wireless adapter configuration in Windows XP article, probably could help you solving the problem. Hope this helps.

1. Make sure, you verify under "Preferred Networks" click on the connection that's not working, click properties. Verify WPA2 is an option in "Authentication". If it's not download the latest drivers for your wireless adapter, restart computer and check again. 2. Next problem is XP's Wireless Lan Manager; it is absolute garbage on XP for WPA2. I have seen many XP SP3 unable to connect to WPA2 because of this. You need to use the wireless manager that comes with your wireless adapter drivers. When you install them opt to install with the software, not just the driver. Supreme Master of XP
