As I said before I have been using WPA2 security for 4+ years without any problem. Back then I must be using older driver version but I can't remember what it was. It could very well be version 9.x > 2.

Try using the driver from support.dell.com.

Because it is NOT > in > my list and I would love to know how to add it!! You're talking about WZC. I'm using Intel wireless software to manage my wireless connection. My WZC Network Authentication options: Open, Shared, WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2, WPA2-PSK. Data encryption is either TKIP or AES. Download driver version 11 from support.dell.com |
