WPA wireless security and XP help?

[Andy_con]

had a few wireless issue on my bt homehub so ive had to change the wireless key etc...

bt recommended changing it from WEP to WPA.

my laptop with windows 7 on connected straight away, but my dads tower with XP on wont connect.

anyone know what i need to do to get it to connect?

do i need to install something so xp works with WPA?

thanks

yes, its been running mega slow, i couldnt even watch a youtube video.

i was using default logon details for the homehub and default wireless password.

not anymore though
