You have to reconfigure the router to use wpa. Look at
<http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r17679150-Howto-make-ActionTec-MI424WR-a-network-bridge
>
Follow the first part of the article directions for accessing the router
configuration interface. Note that under the usual settings, you have
to be directly plugged into the router by ethernet cable in order to
access the router interface. If neither of the usual passwords work,
reset the router (hold down the reset button on the back for a
while), then the default login will work.
Once you've gotten into the router interface, it is fairly easy to
find the
page for the security settings and change them to your liking. Do not
follow the rest of the directions in the above link on how to turn the
router into a bridge.
If you screw things up, resetting the router will take you back to the
original security settings and the default password.
