Hi Nick, Welcome to WindowsBBS.! I went google on (click) and found that support for wpa2 is included in Windows XP SP3. For Windows XP SP2 there were two patches but those don't install on SP3.
You can also find that the hardware (wireless adaptor) must support wpa2 and that the drivers may need updating. You need to find out: - is SP3 installed? - does the wireless adaptor support wpa2? - is the wireless adaptor compatible with XP SP3?
- if so, are the drivers up to date? - if not, download and install the most recent drivers for XP SP3 (may be hard to find for an obsolete operating system).

Well, I found SP3 at Microsoft Update Catalog. I still believe that the best course of action is to retire those computers with an old, insecure operating system but since SP3 is still available from Microsoft, I leave it to you to decide. A few articles to assist in making you decision: After reading those articles, do you want to install SP3? If you do, I will not, repeat NOT be able to assist if anyting goes wrong!

Any other suggestions? - Barb Bowman MS Windows-MVP Expert Zone Columnist. Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless Thanks for the input. I had Auto Updates configured to 'notify only' but for the time being I'll leave it on 'full auto' and just keep an eye on it. Thanks again, I really appreciate all the assistance you've given me!

If I configure my router for WPA-PSK w/ AES then my friend whose laptop supports TKIP (but not AES) won't be able to connect to my router, correct?

That is not how WPA-PSK works, or put another way any AP that did what you just wrote would not pass WiFi interoperability testing. The AP and the STA (in this case the laptop) send information elements to each other stating what level of encryption that they support and they agree on the highest level of security that they both support, in this case that would be TKIP. By the way, AES is not tested for interoperability in WPA; just in WPA2. Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windows.networking.wireless The implementations in most WPA (versus WPA2) residential routers seems to be that the AES setting is exclusive and AES only. I've also suspected that only the TKIP setting is tested even if an AES setting is present on the device.

Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) was recently released as a critical update to Windows XP systems. This update is welcome in that there is still an investment in core updates with the popular operating system compared to Windows Vista, but it will probably be the last service pack style update with core feature additions. Among the network-related features is an update to the XP implementation of the Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2) wireless networking standard. This update brings XP's wireless networking support up to the June 12, 2007, specification level of WPA2 at IEEE 802.11i, which focuses on wireless medium access control (MAC) and physical layer specifications. Support for WPA2 started in 2005 to replace wired equivalent privacy (WEP) functionality, but it has not been updated since then with changes to the WPA2 standard. XP3 is defined as a critical update, and it may arrive on your network before a planned update is launched if your users use the Windows Update site independently.
Among other networking updates, SP3 also gives formal support for Microsoft's implementation as well as simplified IPSec policy creation and maintenance. The Windows XP SP3 overview document explaining the additional WPA2 support and other related features can be found at the. Related Topics.
If you’re running Windows XP and haven’t yet installed Service Pack 3, Microsoft has included a few incentives that might interest networkers. First, XP Service Pack 3 provides support for Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2), the most recent security standard derived from the IEEE 802.11i standard. Microsoft says a more significant offering is the addition of Network Access Protection. This feature, which will be of interest primarily to those running larger networks, is a policy-enforcement platform built into the OS that helps protect network assets by enforcing compliance with system health requirements.

The problem was after installing XP-SP2 using Bootcamp on my MacBook Pro, I could not connect to the router which was running WPA2 and AES. When I set up a profile in the Windows Wireless Connection properties, it gave me the choice of WPA or WPA-PSK (we are using pre-shared key) but not WPA2 or WPA2-PSK. Since those options are available in my Mac OS X v10.5.7 I knew the hardware was capable. I got pretty upset with the tech guy at Apple telling me that if the driver supplied with the Mac OSX disk didn't work that it was a Microsoft Windows issue. I thought he was copping out on me. Turns out he was correct, there is an update that needs to be installed before XP-SP2 will work with WPA2, named: WindowsXP-KB893357-v2-x86-ENU. This driver can be downloaded and installed from: First you will have to click on Continue and run a small program that verifies your copy of Windows is genuine, then it lets you download the update file.
Click Run to install the update and when finished it will ask you to reboot. Like magic, when I went back into my Wireless Connection properties, there was WPA2 and WPA2-PSK. I had to remove the original profile and set it up again (we have the ssid set not to broadcast) then it came on and works fine. I owe the original tech support person an apology for being so negative; unfortunately there was no way to go back and figure out who that was. If you read this Mr. Support Guy, please accept my apology!
