Does your WiFi NIC support WPA2?

Hi
Windows gets the available types of encryption from the Wireless card
drivers.
If you installed the patch, your Wireless source (Router/AP) is WPA2
encrypted and it does not work, it means that your Wireless card is Not WPA2
compatible.
Some older cards can be upgraded to WPA2, otherwise you need a new card.
