192.168.1.1 is not your WEP security code. You need to enter that into the address field of your web browser to access its settings page. In other words, put it into your web browser the same way as you would put www.answers.com into it. You will need to enter the administrator password to get in. The default on most routers is "admin". From this point, the process changes depending on what model and brand of router you have. For most routers, there will be a button or link to a wireless security settings page. The WEP key will be there.
You need to do this from a computer directly plugged into the router with an ethernet cable, though, as without the WEP key you can't access the network at all wirelessly.

If someone has access to the data stream from your computer to any servers you connect to, then yes (in the example of wireless connections). Although it's unlikely they can control your computer, it can see what information you are sending or receiving. You can prevent someone accessing your computer by using a simple firewall, and to prevent someone accessing the data stream, you should use an encryption key. The instructions of how to do so should be on the software manufacturer's website. (microsoft = microsoft.com) Use SSL connections when available to ensure security. And never place personal information over a non-secure connection. The way to identify a secure connection is simple, most web browsers have a logo meaning security is enabled. It is usually a closed padlock. These icons will be found either on the address bar or on the status bar.

I just bought a wirless adapter for my xbox360 console how do I conect to the internet using the adapter thank you to anyone who helps me?
you have to go into network settings and press configure or something until you get to a place that says search for network. It will then search for any wireless networks. Some networks are secured and some might not be. You have to enter the code that is on the computer to unsecure the network.
