Please log in for more thread options Cisco 851W. I'm trying to configure the wireless settings on the 851W and am completely confused. If I try to setup for WPA (which is what the Linksys was set for), I'm told I have to name a RADIUS server. Why? Why would I have to name a RADIUS server? I'm not using a RADIUS server at all on this network and don't understand why I would need to name one just to use WPA. In the past, all I've ever needed to do is set "security mode: WPA Pre- Shared Key", then set "WPA Algorithms: TKIP", "WPA Shared Key: whateveriwant", and "Key Renewal Timeout: 900 seconds". Why doesn't the 851W support this? If it does, how do I do it? I'm using SDM on the router. GW | ||||||||||||||||
