WPA/WEP is the encryption setting and is configured on the wireless router. The use of WEP is not recommended because it is extremely insecure. A WEP password can be cracked in a matter of minutes, or even seconds if there is enough activity on the network. Use WPA!

∙ 12y agoGenerally, you type '192.168.1.1' into your browser's address box. It should ask for a password. The default password is usually 'admin' for the user-name and 'admin' for the password.
If there is a link to this, go to advanced settings and find your router's wireless setup page. There should be an option to change or set up the wireless security mode. Change it to WEP and enter the password you want. Save it and log out of your router settings.
NOTE: You will have to remember this password as you need it to connect to your router. If you forget it, you will have to completely reset your router.
After this, all network devices connecting to the network will need updated so that the password for your router is the same as the new one.
These are general instructions, and for anyone with D-link this will definitely work. Other router makes should work.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on the type of router. For my example, I will use a Linksys Router, because that is what I have.
First, on a computer that is connected to the router, open the web browser and put "192.168.1.1" (192.168.0.1 or 192.168.2.1 can be used just try another if one doesnt work) into the address bar. This should bring up a screen that asks for an ID and a password. The defaults for these are generally ID: "admin" PW: "password" without the quotes.
This will direct you to the router's configuration page. Once you are there, look for a button that says 'Wireless'. Click that, and look for a button that says 'Wireless Security'. In there should be the WEP Key information.
Of course all this assumes that you are looking for the information on your router. If it isn't yours, it is probably protected for a reason, so shame on you!

Where do you find the Wep key for ds?
Check your wireless router's documentation on how to find its WEP key. Assumedly your PC/laptop also connect to your router, so they should have the WEP key already or else they couldn't connect.
Where can you find a WEP key for your Nintendo DS without using a router?
That doesn't technically make sense - a WEP key is the password used to access an encrypted (one form of encryption at least) router. If you don't have a router, it makes no sense to ask for a WEP key - a WEP key to access what? It's like a key with no lock, the WEP key is for a router.So if there's no router, there's no point wanting a WEP key. If there is a router and you don't know the WEP key, then clearly it's someone else's router, and the encryption is precisely to stop unauthorised people using it.
