I will be purchasing a new laptop next week with inbuilt wireless. I want to know that when the new laptop recognises the router signal will it ask me for a password and if yes what that will be.
The 2Wire 1800hg gateway sn 135125021539 (4152191325) assembley number is 4200-900183-000
If your router configure as WEP or WAP it ask for password to connect for security.
For that connect your router to computer with ethernent cable to computer then access it with following link. http://192.168.1.1
or http://192.168.0.1
For belkin router default link is http://192.168.15.2
type user name as "admin" and password a s"admin" or blank or 'password"
then check in wi fi security if it is cinfigured as WEp or WAP you find its password in that but it is in * or # format so set new password so you can remember it.
then save settings and restart .
But if your router has no any security then you not need password to connect it.

check to see if your wireless connection is on on your laptop and set to work with your router - check to see if your laptop's wireless signal is b/g/n - if it's only an "n" - and your router is a b/g - then you will need to purchase an "n" class router...
normally, routers do not "just work without issues" when you bring it home and plug it in - it should have come with a setup disk or instruction guide - have you completed the steps to connect?
first thing is to identify the wireless settings of the router,you need to identify the wireless name (SSID), channel and the encryption you are getting from the airlink router. Next is to make sure that the wireless computer has enabled wireless signal/ or the wireless is on.
after that, you may connecting wirelessly to the computer, right click wireless connection and go to view available wireless networks, try to connect -input the encryption key from you wireless router or password and hit connect.
It comes down to a few things with routers and wireless connections: 1. If you have been dropping the signal over the past few weeks try doing a test on the wireless network connection via the diagnostic tool within the specific wireless connection. 2. You may have gotten a bad update to the wireless card. Try uninstalling it and then reinstalling it. 3. Try deleting the wireless connection for your router and then make 'a new' wireless connection.
looks like the new laptop has been assigned the same ip address as your old latop so it wont allow u access...renew the ip address, assign ur old lap top a new one or just reboot the router so it will issue u with a new ip address.
you may have accidently shut off the wireless on/off switch or button.i also have a acer laptop,& it has a sliding switch in front.other laptops have a push in button.your owners manual should show you where yours is. also check the bottom right hand corner of your laptop for the 2 little computers symbol. right click on it, click on view available networks,look for your router # on the listings. you may have to type in a wep key # to lock in your router.the other signals you are seeing are other routers in the area
good luck
