Network Unsecured after switching to WPA Encryption

[Butsky]

I switched by network from WEP to WPA encryption to make it more secure. (My router cannot do the WPA2 encryption.) After doing that, my network now shows up as unsecured. I don't need to enter a password. What did I do wrong? Do I have to go back to WEP?

If that's a Verizon FiOS router, and it's so old it doesn't do WPA2, then you should take advantage of their free upgrade.

In general if you clicked the button for wpa then it should have taken you to a screen where you were able to enter a new key.

Did it do that?

I wasn't aware of the free upgrade offer, so I will take advantage of that. Thanks for that info. I did get prompted for the new key, assuming that that's the password, and I used the old one. Is that where I made my mistake?
