Thesecurity/encryption key secures your data from unauthorized access. The router's password is a Passphrase or the WEP or WPA orWPA2 encryption key. The Passphrase generates the WEP or WPA or WPA2 encryptionkey and this is in the router's wireless settings. To connect to your wireless router, it needs the router'swireless settings configured ie SSID, WPA or WPA2 encryption key and also thewireless cards in all the laptops and or computers needs to be configured withthese router's wireless settings. Then the laptops and desktop computers can communicatewith your wireless router.

Need security key

In case of 2 wire router the security key is on the back side of the router.
if you turn it upside down you will find 10 digit number. That might be your security key for the wireless network.
if network key is not there or it is not working then you will need to open the setup page of the router and find out the network key.
if you have any computer connected to the router then use that computer to find out the network key.

Can not connect to internet thorough my dlink 614 router It tells me the internet security key is incorrect even though i know it is not

Hi,

Please access the web interface of the router and confirm the security key. Also, you can try to change the security key. It can be a possibility that your computer is not synchronizing properly with the current security settings.

If you find that you are putting the right security key then please change the security type to wep 64 bit or wep 128 bit and configure a new key. Also, change the SSID or the network name and try to connect.

In case of any issues please let me know which windows you are running and the security settings on the router.

Thanks,

Bought a new laptop and having trouble connecting to the internet, it keeps asking for a security key, I have tried all the numbers on the bottom of the router but nothing works, could you please tell me...

Your security key is usually in brackets on the bottom of the router. If a key was not provided with the router, you might want to call your internet service provider and ask them what it is. Also, the security key (password) for the router could have been changed at one time from the number that is on the bottom of the router.
