    y network is WPA2 and I paid a good deal of money for a nice WPA2 router which my Compaq V2000 with Broadcom supports. But when I setup my new Acer TravelMate 4011WLCi to the network with an Intel 2200BG card, it only supports WEP/WPA out of the box.

    Right now I'm doing windows updates on the Acer in hope that it will support WPA2 when it reboots. But who knows.

    My question... does the Intel 2200BG support WPA2? Do I need to download a driver, if so where? Is WPA2 hardware or software? Can I used a 3rd party driver/firmware to enable WPA2?

    Let me know!!! Thanks!
