MN700 and WPA

I'm having a very annoying problem with this router.
When using WEP encryption, the router hums along without
incident. When I enable WPA however, the MN710 adapters
are not allowed to connect to the router. I get an
invalid key warning. The phrase is the same across the
network and yet the router repeatedly tells me they are
invalid. This is either a problem with the router or
the adapter software. All machines are on XP pro and
have the WPA update installed. When I call tech support
I get the "are you at the computer" question. I know
what the symptoms are, I just want a solution rather than
going through the motions with no end result.

Microsoft: Is there a bug in your code? Yes or no and
when can I get a firmware fix for it?

Uninstall the broadband networking software as it does not support WPA.
Start using Windows XP's built in support for wireless networking.

How does one go about doing that?

I have had the same anoying problem...I have already
removed the broadband utility, configured everthing with
the zero configuation utility, and still lose connection
after a day. The only way to reconnect is to reset the
base station, which is a pain in the butt!
