Where is my WEP key?

Serendipity13

I have just installed a Belkin Wireless USB Adapter. I need my WEP key from my Netgear Router but don’t know where to find it. I have accessed my router status page but don’t know where to go from here. Could anyone help, please?

Thank you.

Have a look on the wireless settings page.

MonkeySaving?

It should be under the Security tab under wireless settings, however you shouldn't be using WEP...configure WPA 2 instead.

Afraid I still can't find it!

Monkeysaving, how do I configure WPA 2 instead?

Thanks.

go into the wireless settings page > click the little circle next to wpa-psk and type in a passcode (or get one from the link albertross posted) and click apply

the reason im saying to use wpa-psk is that not all equipment is compatible with wpa 2

Have you looked under the door mat?
