Other wireless devices Some older wireless devices may not be compatible with WPA2 or WPA encryption. This may include network hardware like network interface cards (NICs) and wireless adapters. If you have gaming devices like an Xbox or Wii, you may want to check their website for WPA2 and WPA compatibility before selecting the level of encryption for your wireless network. * If you have a device that isn’t compatible with the security level you prefer, you can choose to connect that device using an Ethernet cable.
