I understand Keysoft 7 will support other protocols which may include wpa.  
Stay tuned.

>Hi Jeff et al,
>Since we're on the subject of the BN and wireless networks, I'll re-post a
>question that I sent a while back.

>Some time ago, I set up a wireless network at my girlfriend's place using a
>Linksys WRT54G router.  Initially, I set up the network with WPA encryption
>not knowing that I wouldn't be able to connect to the network wirelessly
>using my Braille Note.  After discovering this, I changed the network so
>that it  used WEP, but I found that the connections just weren't stable for
>the two Dell PC's, even though I didn't seem to have problems staying
>connected using my Braille Note.  I changed the network  back to WPA and
>neither PC has trouble staying connected.  That being the case, I now
>connect using a standard ethernet connection using my Socket CF card.  My
>questions are these:

>1.  Is WPA not supported by Windows CE,  and is this a hardware or software
>limitation?  Is this likely to change in the foreseeable future?

>2.  Why would a wireless network using WEP be unstable when with WPA it's
>rock-solid?

>I'm a little puzzled by this.

>Thanks,

>Tom
