"Laptop can access WPA2 secured networks now"

dhilljr January 27, 2012 / Version: Wireless Lan Driver 802abg Atheros Ver.5.3.0.45.zip 5.3.0.45

2012-01-27 15:50:45 | By dhilljr

Pros

Can access WPA2 secured networks.

Cons

There is nothing that I can think of.

Summary

I was not able access wireless networks with WPA2 security with an older Sony laptop. When you would click on a WPA2 secured network, no box would pop up for you to enter the password. After upgrading the wireless adapter with this Atheros ver. 5.3.0.45 driver, the box then came up to enter the code and thus, I was able to log on.
