Wireless Network Security

Answer
Do any products support Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) over a WDS bridged connection?

No. In general, you won't find products that support WPA through a WDS-bridged connection. The reason is that WDS uses MAC addresses to communicate, and WPA is designed to encrypt the MAC addresses. [Thnx to Buffalo Technology for their help on this question.]
