Finding my network key
Hi - I've been trying to add a new computer to my secure wireless network at
home, but I can't for the life of me remember what the network key is, so haven't been able to enter it on the new computer. What can I do to find my network key?? I've tried to get around this by creating a "new network" using my existing connection, and entering a new network key for this connection, but this doesn't work. Then, if I follow the Wireless Setup Wizard, it doesn't provide me with the "add computer to network" option: only the "set-up new network" option. Please help! Thanks very much Liam

Finding my network key
You need to log on to your wireless router and then you will be able to see it

Finding my network key
If you cant logon to your wireless router, you could reset it by pressing the
button in the back of the router. This will also blank all your settings including your network key and reset the router to factory settings. Then you can logon to your router and setup everything from scratch.
