go to routerlogin.com, then go to wireless settings then copy and paste the wep code from the box containing the key (near the bottom of the page) and enter it into the computer
its best to set up security with a computer connected by (ethernet)cable
and make sure the WEP box is ticked (under security options)0 -
cheers for that i somehow stumbled up on it and it all worked haha...much appreciated help
