I am assuming that by encryption you mean WEP or WAP. I have not tried to use
WAP but understand it does work. I use WEP and it works for me. If you have
already set up WEP in your wireless access point then use a browser to look at
the configuration and get the HEX keys. Open XWLAN and create a profile for
the SSID of the network, and enter the WEP HEX keys (prefixed by "0x") on the
"security" page. Then you should be able to connect using that profile.
