Doe's this support WPA-2 along with the WDS feature?

Yes it does. From the AirOS User Guide Page 19. Note: If you connect devices running in Station (WDS) mode to a device running in Access Point (WDS) mode, then all security methods (including WPA/WPA2 encryption) are available and work properly.

These APs don't support traditional WDS nor the enterprise Cisco wireless controllers but do have a built-in central configuration called Single Point Setup. Single Point Setup works with identical models (all WAP121 or all WAP321) and allows you to configure the first one and have the additional ones join "the cluster".

I purchased the DWA device months ago and have no problems with it's operation. In researching the specifications on this device there is no reference to hardware versions, only the WIFI communication with the standard protocol of IEEE 802.11a, g and n information you are likely aware. When researching "hardware version is A2?" all I find is a reference to "Bluebottle OS" as well as a reference to a compiler developed at the UNIVAC division of Remington Rand in 1953. Both references seem to be unrelated to WIFI and the operation of this device. Can you be more specific with your questions and how you are relating this to the WIFI communications between you PC and Modem?

Yes it does. You need software version 2.2.0.3. More info, download link, and instructions are here: http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/24516/~/wnda3100v2-software-version-2.2.0.3-%28supports-win8%2F8.1%29

It might have when it was supported but it will not now as Cisco does not provide any further updates on this hardware. It does support DD-WRT quite well however.

Yes it should. i had an sony vaio vgn-a130 and it worked with wpa2 my windows xp pro and all the latest service packed installed.

Yes usually WPA2 does the trick over WEP. But not for me, not this time because I did have it set up WPA. HEre is what I finally did to fix the problem. I went in and disabled all security, and made it an open network. It hooked up right away, no problem at all. Then, I went in and enabled MAC filtering, and added the mac address of the blu ray to my list of authorized users. Then I went back in and turned on the WPA. At first I had tried WPA and WPA2. So hopefully this will help anyone who has problems hooking up. It is VERY frustrating to have network problems, especially when you read in the reviews which state "within 10 minutes after opening the box I was hooked up to NetFlix and watching movies." LOL. So my first instict was correct, something in the router settings need to be tweaked. I use a Belkin N router.

This is no longer true, you can extend your network as long as your wireless router supports wds, see this link http://lifehacker.com/400235/

Yes, it does have WPA2-Enterprise. Just about every modern home wifi router has this feature set built in these days. Hope this helps!

As Far as I know it will but not for sure. Its supports repeater bridge mode and WPA2 enterprise encryptions, don't know if PEAP mode works with it though.

@Gary, yes, the WDTV Live works with the AirLink USB dongle I listed above. No hacking, no nothin'. Just plug it in. I am extremely pleased with the results. I've been streaming hi-def 720 and 1080p with it.@Philip, the Live is nearly identical to the original WDTV gen 1 in design, so yes, it still has 2 USB ports for local hard drives. Under the hood is where it's different. I'm very happy about it being wireless-capable and DTS downmixing, because it now lets me put the device anywhere in the house.

Not that I am aware of. My son researched and was okay with it for security. He is in that business. I found it much easier to set up wpa2 once I did the firmware update that I found. Also, running the set up on chrome didn't display correctly affecting my security setup. I ran it on Firefox with better results.

Lots of features including all of the encryption methods (WPA, WPA2, WEP), RADIUS connectivity, NTP, even a graph which tracks traffic. It has VLAN tagging which works fairly well, and a management VLAN which handles the web interface, ntp and RADIUS traffic. I currently have mine setup with three VLANs connected to a pfsense firewall. One VLAN is bridged to my LAN and associated to my primary SSID which uses WPA2-RADIUS. This authenticates against FreeRADIUS on the pfsense box. The second VLAN is associated to a different SSID, is open and is a separate subnet and firewalled off from my LAN. This is for guests.

I don't remember getting a cd with the unit. However, it was pretty simple to connect. I just pressed the WPS button on the bottom of the unit and then on the router and it connected within a few seconds.

UDMA2 includes Wireless Adapter allows hard drive contents to be accessible from iOS, Android, any WiFi capable device or FTP client.

The BD85 had no problems with WPA2 from my experiance and took a whole 5 minutes to set up , and it also streams quite well (while using a Dlink -655 router (set to full "N') .

I like it very much. If you have any questions about it, just let me know. The do post firmware upgrades frequently. I had upgraded to the latest, but had to roll back as there was a bug in that update where it quit playing my protected wma files. I put an issue in their bug tracker and they said they'd resolve the issue soon. But I really haven't found the need to upgrade the firmware anyway.
