I have a Wirless G+MIMO Modem Router and my security is currently on WEP 128bit. I would like to change this to WPA2-personal (PSK) and just wanted check a few things first as this is all new to me and a little confusing!
As said my Modem router is a Belkin G+MIMO Modem Router that is connected to one PC via Ethernet cable and then my PC downstairs is wirless enabled and I am using WEP128 bit security setting and all is running ok.
So if a change my setting to WPA2-Personal(PSK) I have to fdo the following?
Select WPA2-Personal(psk) for Authentication
Encryption Technique Select "AES"
Enter Pre-Shared Key anything from 8 to 63 charachters
Then go to START> CONTROL PANEL> NETWORK CONNECTIONS...wirless connection Properties and under wirless Network Tab
Click properties for my Belkin Modem Router
and under Network Authentication select WPA2-personal (psk)
Then select "AES" Data Encryption
Type in Encryption Key Under "Network Key" box
and click ok to apply settings
Does this sound correct ? and do I only need to apply the settings on my wirless PC?
and also will I need to download Update to allow support for WPA2(KB893357)

thanks for any help advice much appreciated
