I have an Dell Inspiron 600m with the Dell Wireless 1350 card (based on the Broadcom

4306/2050 chipset).

Is this chipset capable of full WPA2 operation? The drivers I have (3.120.27.0), seem to only allow you to select WPA, and I am having some issues with my router (a D-link DI624), which I don't know where to blame yet.

Any alternative drivers I should try, which would support WPA2 if these ones don't?

Thanks,

Iggy

I can't say for certain, but only the Dell 1370 and 1470 seem to be certified for WPA2:

Well, if you happen to be running Windoze XP SP2, you could just install:

's not in the chipset or even in the Broadcom driver. It's in the "supplicant". Also, be advised that it's not a full implimentation of all the assorted authentication schemes supported by WPA2.
