What is the access point security for the 2wire Gateway. Wpapsk or wpa2psk? 2wire 3800 Series Gateway

There could be a mismatch between hardware and the older systems. You may be required to have a 64 bit OS and/or X2 CPU and over 1G memory to access the current devices. XP is too old for many of todays advanced devices. In addition, the Old Bios may not have instruction sets to accmodate your Lan setup.

So i guess you already connect your Belkin to your ATT.

The WEP encryption code is configured in the wireless settings.
If possible use WAP or WPA2 encryption as these are a lot more secure than WEP encryption.

hello, try this things ok

WPS stand for Wi-Fi Protected Set-up . According yo Wikipedia "The goal of the WPS protocol is to simplify the process of configuring security on wireless network, If your 2Wire router is equiped with that function it would be the BIG button on the bottom front of your router Look at this advertisement from 2Wire http://2wire.com/movies/pages/112.swf

Hope this helps,
Kind regards

by default, this gateway is using the WEP encryption, you can find the WEP on the barcode sticker on the gateway itself. if still can't connect to it. reset the gateway by pressing the reset button on the gateway for 8secs.. this will revert the gateway back to default settings.

Hi Kregerbc,

If you want to know your Access Point it is the Name of your Network or Network Key (SSID). Usually the Network Name of 2wire router is 2WIRE and the Last 3 digits of the Serial Number of the Router. The Serial Number is located at the side of the router you will find a Sticker and look for the Serail Number you can also see there the Wireless Network Key under the Bar Code. Another Procedure to find the information of the router is to access it. listed below are the steps on how to access the router.

• Open a Web browser and type http://gateway.2wire.net or http://192.168.1.254; the 2Wire Home page opens.
• Click the Home Networking tab at the top of the 2Wire Home page.
• Click on Wireless Settings. then click EDIT SETTINGS located on the right panel.
• Here you will be able to fine the setting for your Wireless Connection
• You can change the SSID, Wireless Channel, Wireless Security, and Network Key

Check for TCP port number and IP number also.

to get this right you must make sure that the 2wire will be configured to be your gateway which means that the 2wire itself will be connected to the internet then set the linksys to DHCP mode because if you dont it will give you a router behind router error , make sure that the 2wire is properly authenticated and connected to the internet to make sure access the gui by typing gateway.2wire.net on your browser and run system set up wizard
