Establishment of a WEP

Yes, for almost 2 years now, our internet had no security at all (the father had forgotten the password), I was wondering if I go to the gateway (192.168.1.1) I can set up a password there, when I look in the category 'Wireless' I see wifi security, and it allows me to choose WEP WPA ect. If I select WEP and do whatever it is he sure he I have to enter a password when you try to connect? I know this sounds stupid and silly but I pretty sure and ask stupid questions that heal and assuming that I know everything.

If it is the right method to do, I can assume that passphrase ask you a question or give you a hint, key 1 is the password for access to wifi?

If not someone could walk me through it, I looked around a bit and found nothing at all, thanks in advance.

Gateway of the router:

Wireless-N Router WRT160Nv3

Yes configures the WRT using the Web user interface:

http://192.168.1.1

For sure you should change the default router admin password:

Administration-management-online router password online

I recommend that you set the security "WPA2 Personal" instead of WEP Wireless:

Wireless => wireless security

Also disable WPS (Wireless Protected Setup), but instead to specify your wireless settings:

Wireless-Basic Configuration online

  1. Network mode = mixed
  2. SSID = something you like
  3. Channel = Auto
  4. = Enable SSID broadcast

  • WiFi fails to connect when active Wep - Satellite L350

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L350. Day 1 purchase, free Wi - Fi was OK. Updates to operating system Vista Home Premium starts automatically and SP2 installed now. Now impossible to establish wireless connection WEP enabled on the router (3Com Office Connect ADSL Wireless 11g Firewall Router. Error message indicates the security settings of the network adapter (Atheros 5007EG) are incorrect.

    I have them repeatedly redefined and encryption of the router several times. Nothing works.
    The adapter can find my SSID of the network but will not connect. However if I turn off the WEP connection works.

    Cable connection to the router is working OK

    Driver for card is reported as more later.

    Can't think of anything else to do.
    Advice please.

    Hello

    It is certainly a problem of encryption
    You should check the configuration of your router again

    That means tat that you should try to change the type of encryption; try using WPA instead of WEP.
    This should be replaced on the router and WLan configuration settings
    Check if you can configure using the Atheros WLan WLan configuration tool
    But if you would do this, please don t forget to turn off internal Windows zero config.

  • Tecra A8: Could not establish a wireless connection with encriptación WEP KEY

    Hello.

    I just got a new TECRA A8-143, and I am unable to connect to a 3COM Wireless ADSL Modem when the encriptación WEP key in active. The encriptación turns off as soon as I am connected to the internet, any suggestions!

  • Satellite Pro L300: Could not establish connection using WPA / WPA2-PSK

    Hello

    I have a Netgear FVG318 router with the new firmware and problems to connect using WPA-/ WPA2-PSK with Realtek RTL8187B integrated.

    With the help of WEP that works. I did a complete restore of Vista and installed SP1 + all Windows updates. No change...

    Then I tried using a Netgear USB WLAN Stick WPN111--> the same result, works only WEP.
    I rechecked the shared key before!
    After that I tried with a HP laptop, wonder... everything works! WEP, WPA / WPA2-PSK works! What do you mean?
    I think that there is a software problem in Toshiba-Vista version.

    Do you have any idea? The support has not helped me.

    Hello

    What you need to do is first of all update the WLan driver and if possible, you should check if the latest BIOS is installed too.
    I had similar problem on my A210 and all first I've updated the BIOS, then driver WLan.

    This helped to establish the WiFi connection.

  • I can't change the settings of the wireless LAN encryption WEP

    Hi all

    I have a WRC-1000, I have not used for a year and a half. Now, I reconnected it the device and during Setup, I can't change network wireless security (WEP) settings. No matter what I do, it keeps stuck on 128 bit WEP.

    Also, it does not show the WEP key settings (if the screen where I have to configure the WEP key).

    That's what I've done so far: Full reset, reload the configuration by default, set to update to the latest firmware. Still no change. I suspect a hardware failure. Is this a defect of memory (flash)?

    Can someone help me?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    You mean on the router settings or the WLan setting on the laptop?

    Have you tried using a client such as Intel ProSet utility or Atheros WLan Wlan connectivity tool?

    According to your WLan card I recommend you check out these two tools and try to establish the WiFi connection using one of these programs!

  • Qosmio G35: Cannot open Web sites when WEP is set

    I have a Qosmio G35, I have no problem connecting to unsecure networks, but whenever I have to enter a WEP key, it says I am connected but when I open internet Explorer, I am unable to view all of the Web sites.

    Sometimes just with the normal message that you get when you have no connection "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". I tried ping the server and that has worked well.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    > I have a Qosmio G35, I have no problem connecting to unsecure networks,
    I suppose that the work of internet connection also with no problem when the WEP encryption is NOT defined

    Well, I put t know exactly why the problem appears, but I think that it is a software problem and that's why you should try to update the WLan driver.

    I put t know what Wlan card you use, but perhaps also a WLan Intel card. So check the site of Intel support for some updates.
    If you n t use the Intel Proset Wlan tool for wireless setup so download and try to establish a connection with this utility.

  • Old laptop has only WEP in the drop-down list of options wifi, I need to do using WPA2-PSK. How to do it?

    It's an old Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro M10 with an Intel PRO/wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI adapt (whatever that means!), I did all the updates of Windows, but when I try and establish a connection wifi encryption options of data only from the drop-down are 'disabled' and 'WEP '.

    I checked on the Toshiba site and downloaded the latest wifi and internet updates, I even tried Intel Update site, but they have nothing appropriate (something to do with Toshiba, make changes to drivers for Intel do not offer updates).

    It connects to the internet without problem if I use a cable, but it's not really practical, wifi would be much better.

    Can anyone suggest something to make my laptop use/recognize the WPA2-PSK?

    Thank you very much

    I talked to Toshiba, very nice chap called Daniel spent 30 minutes on the phone and found a very old and apparently obscure update for me to download. Once this has been done the phone was able to connect to the router WPA2-PSK using WEP. Not too sure exactly what the update does but at least it will now connect to modern wi - fi, even if it is only at 11 Mbit / s. apparently, it's as much as the material can handle!

  • How to configure WEP on a WRT100 security re-

    I'm visiting my aunt and her Linksys wasn't working properly, so I reset to factory default, and it's working now, except that now I can't seem to find the how-to page on how to set up WEP security again (or another variant of security... What is now suitable for a home router). Can someone sent me the url for instructions on how to do it? And is it crazy to try to do this without an ethernet cable connecting the laptop to the router? Thank you!

    Whether you are able to implement security, it is imperative that you plug a cable from a computer to the router. But it's just temporary, unless you have finished all the settings. You can do wireless, but you will have to reconnect again and again to set up the page because you will be disconnected whenever you change a setting. Please see the link below:

  • Network takes 1-2 minutes to establish a connection

    I just bought an SSD drive, my computer starts up real quick, but my internet connection takes forever to establish a connection (on a wired connection). During this time can not open a Web browser. I tried to go through the control panel and tried the msconfig startup method (off almost all programs)... nothing works. It was not always like this and the only thing that I can remember installation before that happened was when I installed a VPN progam which I uninstalled since then. I looked for a solution for hours.

    Hi Mister Chad,

    1. do you get any error code or message while trying to connect to the Internet?

    2. what security software is installed on the computer?

    3. are you able to access Web sites using another browser?

    Networks rely on complex technology, in order to diagnose the cause of a network problem can often be a difficult task. For example, if you are unable to access a Web site, you will see an error message, but the message may not necessarily very useful since it will not usually identify the exact problem. The problem may be caused by a number of problems with your computer, the web server or the network between your computer and the web server.

    You may encounter network or problems of Internet in Windows for several reasons. Some common problems that can cause these problems are:

    ·         A wireless network adapter switch that is not enabled.

    ·         WEP, WPA, or WPA2 key or password security issues.

    ·         Cables that are not connected correctly.

    ·         Corrupt or incompatible drivers.

    ·         Missing updates.

    ·         Network connection settings.

    ·         Hardware or software problems.

  • Firefox Sync gave a new facility with no priority of settings or default on an established instance

    I created Firefox on a new Windows 10 PC setup and activated my account Firefox Sync on this instance.
    When I got back to my regular desktop PC, I find that Firefox has acquired the new PC settings rather than on the new PC acquire the established PC settings.

    I was expecting the opposite to happen.

    While the installation of new PC would have parameters of age "more recent" the established PC that was put in place several months ago and on technical, the most recent stamp usually takes precedence, in this case, where the settings and installation dates are only minutes apart, that the direction of the synchronization must to were questioned and confirmed.

  • Cannot get the password or re-establish the link. What should I do?

    Cannot get the password or re-establish the link. What should I do? Reset email is never sent. This master password"... How do you define? I'm locked out of Thunderbird. Help

    Maybe he's trying reset Pasword Thunderbird Master as I'm doing? I copy the code and paset in the console tools\error and press Evaluate. I wonder if I want to reset the Master PW and I say yes, then I get a saying that the Master PW has been reset. Maybe he's looking for an e-mail to tell him that the IPL has been rest to? But the problem is, nothing happens when the password has been reset, msg is sent. TB continues to request the password. I have not changed my PW and when I enter the good PW, TB does not recognize. And reset the PW Master does nothing but generate Pop up messages. It's very frustrating. The information in the help files are not accurate, or the code provided does not work although it generates messages indicating that the IPL has been reset.

  • Aks whenever Firefox be the standard browser - although it is already established

    Since the last update for windows firefox 8.1 ask every time to be the standard browser. In the windows settings (standard programs), it is already established as such. But in the Firefox settings (General provisions), it is shown constantly to be non-standard.

    You can disable the application by going to menu > Preferences > general, then uncheck the box that says always check to see if firefox is the default browser. I would also try that in fact the default browser from here, see if that helps.
