• Where and how to find the wep or wpa security key?

  I am trying to go to Xbox 360 live. I bought a direct card and it worked fine after that I entered the subscription on the map code. The next day, I was unable to sign. I have tried everything I know, but now he wants my wep or wpa security key. I didn't when I first adding them. I am usuing a wi - fi connection and cannot locate a wep or wpa security key. Can you possibly tell me where to find it?

  Hello

  The WEP or WPA security key is stored on the page of the router. I suggest you to connect on the router's Web page and retrieve the key that could help connect the Xbox.

  If the above mentioned steps article does not help, then it would be better to post the same question in the Xbox forum to get help. We have a dedicated team to help you with such questions.

• I can't find my NETWORK SECURITY KEY.

  Why is - both diffitult to locate the NETWORK SECURITY KEY, so that I can use my printer on the network which is much safer to use WiFi.  The router shows all sorts of numbers, but none of them can be identified as a NETWORK SECURITY KEY.  Why is it so hard to find?  If it is not on the router what else I can do.  The router displays the NETWORK NAME, NETWORK PASSWORD, BUT this is the key to network security.  Why is this such a puzzle, and why not just the router shows the NETWORK SECURITY KEY?  Can someone help me with this?  Thank you.

  filgrastin

  The network security key is the password used by the network to authenticate access.

  It is the pop-up window you see when you try to access a secure network.

  It is not a number, it is a set of characters - and WiFi, they are associated with the SSID of the network you are trying to access.

  On newer routers, there is usually a sticker (or a card that comes with the router) that contains the default SSID and password.

  There is no way that we can find for you, because it is internal to your router.

• where can I find my network security key

  where can I find my network security key

  Hi, Rodolphe,.

  It's the security of wireless encryption and it is located in the Security section of the configuration of your wireless router settings (even if it is probaby not displayed and requires that you know - a bit like a password).

  Connect to your wireless router, check the configuration for the single SSID (your wireless connection name) and go to the section of security configuration to set security wireless to the router with a key (or to change the key, but you may need to know that to change to a new one - although you'll see below that I didn't need to know the old man) and if necessary (and it will) type the key to the laptop when the configuration that it connects to the router.  You will not be able to access this key if the computer after an entry - it's just to establish the ability to connect.  There is an empty space where the key was seized, but it converts the real key to a string of points, so it cannot be read.  If you change the key through the router, you can change the key through the computer by putting in new and once registered, it will work (but will return again to a chain, so you can not read or the other).

  To configure the wireless router read his extended manual or go online and check on the site Web of the manufacturer, forums, and/or technical support.  I am not quite sure, but if you can connect to the router configuration pages, you can probably change the key and I do not know if you will need to know the old key to set a new or not - it may work or it may not it can vary depending on the router.  If your login details are forgotten, the router can be reset and reconfigured with the default settings - but you will need their help to do that besides the default settings usually use passwords and logins by default.  Many use admin or administrator as the default user and admin or administrator name or password as default password.  Once you have access, check where the key is set and see if you can change it without knowing the old key or how do them before you let them in off the line.  In some cases, your ISP's technical support group can help you with this if they know and support this particular router.

  It is usually open your browser and where you would normally type an address (of course everything connected to the network), instead of typing 192.168.1.1 (or whatever your default gateway which is in such a situation the address for the wireless router).  If you do not know (and I've used just which is the most common failed) but can still access the network, and then click on start / all programs / accessories / right-click on command prompt and click Run as administrator then type IPCONFIG/all and enter and look for the wireless connection and the IP address of the router should be the default gateway (and often also the DNS server IP and the IP Address of the DHCP server as well).  Use whatever it says in your browser to try to access the router.  I just checked my (a Lynksys) and after that enter the IP address he gave me access after asking for a user name and password and, to my great surprise and you'll be happy to hear, when I went to the wireless security section, he showed me the security key (not a lot of points, but the actual key).

  I hope this helps.  I know the procedure in the works of the previous paragraph for me, as I did just to confirm, but I'm not sure what you have equipment or if it will work the same or if you know the user name and password to access the router configuration or how the key is set or displayed.  Keep in mind that configure the computer for a wireless connection is typically more to just know the key but also to know the type of security used (for example the type of security and the encryption type and there may be many options for both and you don't want to be guessing).  If this isn't the case, then if the router is still under warranty I would try the router support for help.  If not, I would try the ISP technical support to aid first because he would be free, and they may be able to do.  They could also mess things up to the point where you have no choice but to communicate with the technical support of the router group and to be unable to connect until it is resolved (or try their Web site technical support options or the support forums (which once occurred to me, but I had the Bill sent to the ISP because they were responsible for ruining it and was surprised that I never heard to)) New from these companies).

  Good luck!

• Security key for HP Professional Laserjet P1102w

  I have a HP Laserjet P1102w of professional and wanted to use it in wireless direct printing. The connection to the printer networkhas no problem and it can print nicely. But I can't find a way to define a security (e.g. the WEP key or password) key for the wireless connection. In this case, if there is no security key has been defined, then someone in the area could be easily connect to the printer and use it for printing.

  The question:

  Is it possible to set a security key for the wireless connection?

  Thank you before.

  Hello

  The WEP key or password is on your router, not your printer. Which key WEP other devices (computer (s)) use? Without the WEP key or security key password, anyone can use you your network.

  Kind regards.

• Adding a security key for an internet connection

  We already had a wireless internet connection set up, which we use for a year... A neighbour came round to say that they are able to connect to our network unsecured connection, so obviously I need now to "fix". I do this by adding a security key? I followed the instructions of windows on this operation, but it says it cannot detect our router although it is plugged directly to the laptop.

  Not a question for the forum of Security Essentials.  Visit the website of the manufacturer of your router and look at fixing it.  This key will be involved in you logging into the router and setting a WEP (or other).  Once this is done, you MUST use the same key for devices in your home.

• How can I find my "network security key?

  Hello world...

  I am a netbook which is preloaded with windows 7 starter. My PC is 64-bit windows vista ultimate. I have an ADSL router that is connected to the computer with a network cable (yellow) - internet works fine.

  I'm trying to connect my netbook to the wireless router, and the netbook from asking a "network security key.

  Where exactly can I find it? I can't find that whatever this is named network security key to my router settings...

  Thank you very much!!

  The wireless security key is in the settings of your router. See below for how to configure a wireless network in complete safety. It will also cover where you will find these settings.

  Have a computer connected to the router with an ethernet cable. Examples given are for a Linksys router. See the manual of your router or the router mftr's Web site. for the parameters by default if you don't have a Linksys. Open a browser such as Internet Explorer or Firefox and in the address bar type:

  http://192.168.1.1 [Enter] (it is default IP address of the router, which varies from router to router then check your manual)

  This will bring you to the login screen of the router. The default username is blank and the Linksys default password is "admin" without the quotes. Enter this information. You are now in the configuration of the router utility. Your configuration utility may be slightly different from mine. The first thing to do is to change the default password because * all * known default passwords for different routers.

  Click the Administration link at the top of the page. Enter your new password. MAKE A NOTE SOMEWHERE THAT YOU WILL NOT LOSE. Re-enter the password to confirm it, and then click Save settings at the bottom of the page. The router will reboot and show you the box of connection again. Do not fill in the user name and put it in your new password to enter the configuration utility.

  Now, click on the link wireless at the top of the page. Change the network name (SSID) wireless by default to something, you'll recognize. I suggest that my clients not use their surname as the SSID. For example, you might want to name your network wireless network "CastleAnthrax" or similar. ;-)

  Click on save settings and when you get the prompt that your changes were successful, click the wireless security link which is just beside the Basic Wireless Settings link (where you changed your SSID). Most computers purchased during the last 4 years have the wireless hardware that will support WPA2-Personal (also known as WPA2-PSK). This is the desired encryption level. If your wireless hardware is older, use WPA. Don't use WEP, because who is easily broken within minutes. So go ahead and set the Security Mode WPA2-Personal. Do this and enter a password. For example, you could use the password ' here be dragons, beware you scurvy dogs! The password is what you enter on all computers that are allowed to connect to the wireless network. MAKE A NOTE SOMEWHERE THAT YOU WILL NOT LOSE.

  At this point, your router is set up and if the computer that you use to configure the router will normally connect wireless, disconnect the ethernet cable and wireless of the computer should see your new network. Enter the password that you have created (exactly as you wrote it with all capital letters and punctuation) to join the network and start surfing.

• No mapping between account names and security IDS was done

  Hello

  I have a laptop of Acer under Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1.  I open advanced user accounts of & assistance, and I saw two names my old & news of the administrator. He used my name as the user name and my new name as the display name, so I deleted the old username & changed to match the full name (the new name).  After the change has been made, I get an error message "no mapping between account names and security IDS was done 26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064-C98683.  Now I can't access control panel to make changes to account. Help & Support in the start menu and Windows Explorer are no longer works. Tools on the toolbar doesn't work or the other.  I can't yet run a virus scan.  I did find something useful from my own research.  Help!

  Thank you
  Cheeszz
  P.S. I also started a McAfee Quick Clean to remove undesirable accumulation of the computer.  He cleaned the keys to an orphan registry, internet cache, temporary files & lost file fragments.  I don't know if he has also nothing to do with the error message.

  Hello Cheeszz,

  Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft answers Forum.

  Essentially, you get the "no mapping between account names and security IDS was done" is because you now have an orphaned user account. This occurred when you deleted your old username which was still in use by the system under the name of each user name has a unique SID.

  I suggest that run you a system restore point, then you can go back to a previous point in time before you deleted the name of the user.
  Follow the article below for the establishment of a system restore procedure.

  936212 KB - how to repair the operating system and how to restore the configuration of the operating system to an earlier point in time in Windows Vista
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/936212

  You can also create a manual system restore point so that you can restore to that State in case of problems.
  Right-click on the computer icon in the desktop, then choose Properties
  In the left pane, click System Protection
  Alternatively, to directly access the System Protection tab, click Start and type SystemPropertiesProtection.exe.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
  Click the System Protection tab and then click on create.
  In the System Protection dialog box, type a description, and then click on create.

  If you do not have a restore point system, try to see if LastKnownGood configuration might work for you.
