mobile modem connection.

I purchased a mobile modem two weeks ago with unlimited data sim. Connected to the computer and works well, today it failed to connect saying it needs a WPA2 personal password. Tried the password it came with and no good.

Can anyone help with a WPA2 definition?

WPA2 is an authentication method for wireless routers.

Why has it worked for two weeks with the original password and now needs a WPA2?

The logical explanation here is that the password on the router you're connecting to, has been changed. Either that, or there's been some other change to the security config on your router.

Exactly what equipment are you using?
