WPA driver for Lan-Express 802.11 mini-pci

How can I get drivers for the Lan-Express wifi mini-PCI card in my Presario 2500 notebook that will allow me to set up a WPA wireless network? My AP supports this. Running XP home.

Antoniov,

Thanks for the reply. I could not find it in that list, but I found the card in the Compaq support and drivers: LAN-Express 802.11b Wireless LAN Adapter Driver for Windows XP(English).
This is the address for where I found some drivers, but no WPA support.

It is an internal 802.11b card for the compaq 2100 (sorry I said 2500 earlier, but it is the same part). The company name is Lan-Express, it seems.

I really am expecting HP to take care of its customers and not leave them hanging with the hardware that HP chose to incorporate in their systems. Thanks.

I have clients with nx9010's that have the same Lan-Express card. I would expect that HP would have a WPA compliant driver. The latest driver on the HP web site shows a date of mid-summer, but when installed it shows a date of 11/14/2002?? Is there a WPA driver for the Lan-Express cards running 802.11b?

There are currently no plans to update the software on the Lan-Express devices to include WPA support.
