The network key is basically the password of the network your trying to connect to. Ask the owner of the network for the password or make sure your typing it exactly like you were told.

Basically you only need two things to connect to a network, the SSID, the name of the network (JohnsHouse, Motel6, etc, for example) and the password or KEY. (you would get the password from the owner of the network, either John or the desk person at the Motel 6.)

Well, I guess you would need 3 things, you also need to have the same encryption that the network is using also, WEP, WPA, WPA2, etc, they have to match.

When someone sets up a a Wirelss network, there is an option to use a Wireless Equivalency Privacy (WEP) key. It is bascially a password that anyone who wants to get on the network has to type in to access the network It is used as a security device so not just anyone can get on their network. So to answer your question, you need to ask someone for their network key to log into there wireless network.
