It will be on the wireless security section in your router's configuration utility. Refer to your router's manual to see how to use the router's configuration utility.

news  In trying to add a new laptop to my existing home, wireless network, I'm being asked for a 'security key' on the new laptop. where would I find this? -- pmcd404 In the router setup. It is the key/password/pass phrase for the wireless security. Depending on your router and the type of security (WEP, WPA, PA-2 etc.) it could be called any of these things. -- Kerry Brown Microsoft MVP - Shell/User http://www.vistahelp.ca/phpBB2/

network security key
Hi,
Well at least you or someone setup the encryption Key, so good for you. Depending on your router brand you will need to access it most likely through your browser. For a Linksys you will type in your browser address bar the following.... 192.168.1.1 The default setting for the Linksys is blank and the password is admin Once your in, look for the Wireless tab and then the Wireless Security tab. You should see your Security Key and the type of Security Setup on the router, -- All the best, SG "Peter Mac" wrote in message news In trying to add a new laptop to my existing home, wireless network, I'm being asked for a 'security key' on the new laptop. where would I find this? -- pmcd404
