The router will have an administration page, normally accessible with a browser, where you can reset the network key. I assume the key is for a wireless network, so you can access the router without a key by hooking up with cable.

If you have lost the password for the administration page as well, the router can be reset to default settings with a tiny button somewhere on the box. (The reset button is normally so small that you need a pen or similar to push it.)

To find the administration page and the default password, check the router documentation. You can normally find the details on internet when you have the router make and model, or you can contact support department of a computer store.

How do you find the router password key to hook a new computer into an existing router?

Check security setting for wireless network in your router settings. Some routers allow to see the key, some mask it with asterisks. If your router masks the key (in router settings), you have to put a new key, if you want to connect more computers.


What do you do if you forgot your wireless network key?

You need to log on your router go to security settings for wireless network and change the key. Because of security concerns the key is shown as asterisks (little stars) only. So basically you cannot recover it. The easiest way just to enter a new key. Also look on the bottom of your router, some routers have the wep key labeled on the bottom, if you changed the key from the default, reset your router and it should reset to the default key.


Why can I find a signal but not wirelessly connect to a network on my computer?

How do you get a SSID and WEP key for a DS?

You configure them when setting up your wireless router. The SSID is the 'name' it broadcasts, and the WEP key is the code a device needs to be able to unencrypt data sent by it. Once you've got the router set up, you can enter the SSID and WEP key into the DS, to allow it to connect to your router.

What is the WEP key for DSi internet?

The WEP key is the encryption key your wireless router uses to stop unauthorised people accessing the network. When you set yours up, you'll have set the key so your computer or laptop can access your network. All you need to do is use that same key on the DSi to access the network.

Im trying to find a WEP key so you can access the internet on your ds lite and im completely lost you cant even get the proper ip webpage can anyone help i tried command ipconfig all and it not work?

A WEP key is the passcode used to access a wireless router. Assumedly your PC/laptop also connects to your router, you should be able to get the WEP key from those. Check your router's documentation.If you do not have a wireless router, then you don't need a WEP key. Any signals your DS picks up, in fact belong to other people, and the WEP key is exactly there to stop unauthorised people using the network.
