Assuming that you were using a wireless client to change the WEP settings, here is what happened: You turned on WEP and applied the settings to the router. Upon doing that, the data became encrypted at the router. The wireless client you are using to set up the router can't communicate with the router because the WEP is not turned on. You essentially cut yourself off. So, the browser timed out. To solve this, after turning on WEP at the router, turn the WEP on at the client PC. The connection will be established again. You may need to refresh the browser.

How can i conect to the internet with my sony psp

1 First, let's take a look at your router setup. In order to do this, you need to open a new, empty browser window on your PC, and you need to enter the IP address of the router itself. Generally, this should look like this: link You should preferably use Internet Explorer to do this. If this address does not direct you to your router, your router may have a different address. In order to get this, you should first attempt to run the set-up program on your router's disk. You may be asked for a password before you are able to directly access the router. Commonly, the username and password are: admin/password. However, if you do not know your username and password for the router, you may need to reset the router physically. Click here to go to Router Troubleshooting below to do this.

Have you connected to your router?
Yes, I have connected to my router - proceed to step 2 below.
No, I have not yet connected to my router - proceed to Router Troubleshooting below.

2 Now that you are connected to your router, let's examine some of your settings. Navigate within your router's settings dialog and locate "Wireless Settings" (or similarly titled).
3 Verify that you have been assigned an SSID.
4 Verify that your region is correct.
5 Verify that you are on channel 11. (This may be different. If so, make sure your PSP is on the same channel as well.)
6 Verify that "Enable Wireless Access Point" is enabled.
7 Verify that "Allow Broadcast of Name (SSID)" is enabled
8 Under "Security Encryption (WEP)", set authentication type as "Open System". Set Encryption Strength as "Disable" . (If you enable encryption, see the next step.) Otherwise, continue to step 10. If you experience problems, you need to reduce your encryption to 64 bit.
9 Under "Security Encryption (WEP) Key", select "generate". Make note of the generated key. Be sure to click on "Apply" or "Finish".
10 Click on "Wireless Card Access List" if available. You may be prompted again for your password.
11 Be sure that "Turn On Access Control" is disabled.
12 Is your PSP listed here? If not, then do the following: On your PSP, navigate to "System Settings" Then navigate to "System Information". Make note of your MAC address.
13 In "Wireless Card Access List" select "Add". You can figure this out by yourself, can't you? If not, then enter your PSP's MAC address as you've noted it. Be sure to hit "Apply" or "Finish" when you are done.
14 Under WAN settings, verify that "Connect Automatically, as Required" is enabled.
15 Under"LAN TCP/IP Settings" make note of all of the information included. You may need this later. You may not, but it's a good idea to take note of it now.
16 Under "Router Status" make note of all the relevant information included here as well. You may or may not need it.

PSP Setup
1 Turn your PSP on if you haven't already.
2 Ensure that your WLAN switch is turned on.
3 Perform a factory reset. In order to do this, select "Settings", then select "Restore Default Settings". You will not lose any information or data by performing this step. However, you may need to reset your wallpapers. Set your name, date, time, etc.
4 Power down your PSP. Wait 10 seconds, then power it on.
5 Navigate to "Network Settings".
6 Select "Infrastructure Mode"
7 Select "New Connection" Name this connection as you deem appropriate.
8 Navigate to "WLAN Settings" Select "Scan".
9 Your router should now be listed. If it is, proceed to step 10. If it is not, and you followed all of the steps so far, then something is wrong with your PSP, or the settings, or a combination of both. See Router Troubleshooting and PSP Troubleshooting below.
10 Navigate to "WLAN Security Setting". If you did not select encryption in ROUTER SET-UP, step 8, then leave the option as "None"
11 If you selected encryption in ROUTER SET-UP, step 9, then select the appropriate WEP, or WPA..
12 Navigate to "Address Settings". Select "Easy"
13 Navigate to "Setting List". Verify that your settings are correct.
14 Navigate to the next screen and press X to save your settings. You should get a message that says "Save Completed. Test Connection". Press X.
15 You should get two quick display messages. The first should say "connecting to access point." The next should say "obtaining IP address".

Yes! If you got these messages, and are now able to connect to the internet then congratulations! Now, go use your PSP to do the same thing you can do on your PC now, only smaller and slightly slower.

How do I obtain the WEP Code for this Router? I'm trying to hook up my Internet capable LCD TV

Step 1 Log into the web configuration of the router by opening up a web browser and typing in the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1).

Click here if you cannot access the web-based configuration.

Step 2 Enter your username (admin) and your password (blank by default). Click OK . Click the Home tab and click the Wireless button on the left hand side of the screen.

di614_128wep.gif

Step 3 Select Enable next to the WEP radio buttons. For WEP encryption select 64, 128, or 256-bit encryption. For the Key type select HEX. If you have an option for Authentication type, select Shared Key.

Step 4 Select Key 1. Enter a Hex encryption key that you make up. The length of the encryption key will depend on what you selected under WEP Encryption.

  • 64-bit encryption 10 characters
  • 128-bit encryption 26 characters
  • 256-bit encryption 58 characters (available on DI-614+ only)


  • The encryption key is HEX, meaning 0-9 and A-F are valid characters. For example, A4583DFF1A (64-bit HEX key).

    Step 5 Click on the Apply button then click on the Continue button to save your settings.

    Note: If using non-D-Link adapters, please refer to the manufacturer´s documentation on enabling encryption.

    Are trying to enter the WEP key and it is not allowing any more the 5 characters (please input 64 bit WEP encryption and Five ASCII Characters))

    It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router before your wireless network adapters. Please establish wireless connectivity before enabling encryption.

    Note: Your network will slow down and wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead.

    Step 1 Log into the web configuration of the router by opening up a web browser and typing in the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1).

    Click here if you cannot access the web-based configuration.

    Step 2 Enter your username (admin) and your password (blank by default). Click OK . Click the Home tab and click the Wireless button on the left hand side of the screen.

    Cannot connect to wireless internet

    How did you reset the wireless router back to the factory defaults?
    Did you use the Reset button on the back of the D-Link?
    The encryption setting is set in the router's wireless configuration.
    After the router has been set to the factory default, connect a LAN cable to the wireless router and open IE browser and enter the configuration IP address (http://192.168.0.1) the default login = admin and the PW = blank (just press enter)
    Then change to default password so it prevents anyone changing the router's wireless configuration.
    The encryption default should be not be enabled.
    Change the SSID so you and your guests can identify your wireless router.
    You can enable encryption if you wish to prevent unauthorized access, but you need to advise your guests of the encryption key.

    2nd laptop will not connect to internet

    I'm assuming that your 2nd laptop is wireless? Does your router have encryption? If it has, then you need to get the encryption key from one of the working computers. Access the linksys interface from one of the working computers. Usually this is done by going to http://192.168.1.1 (leave username blank, password is "admin"). Go to Wireless> Wireless Security. Is encryption selected? If yes, get encryption key #1 and use it on the non-working laptop to connect to the router. If encryption is not enabled, go to the steps below.

    On the 2nd laptop, click on the wireless icon at the bottom right part of your screen. Look for the linksys router from one of the available wireless networks, click connect and enter in the encryption key when it asks for it (not case-sensitive. Usually it's 10 or 24 digits). If encryption is not enabled, it will not ask for the encryption keys when you hit connect. See what happens.

    I need to secure my router. I had payed to have it set up when I was getting my computer fixed only to find out that my son could log on with out a password. How can I fix this.

    To set up wireless router security, there are four main steps, which are the same for most routers. These are:

    1) Login to your router, using a wired connection
    2) Change the router login password
    3) Change the network name (SSID)
    4) Enable WPA encryption.
    ************DETAILS************
    1) Login to your router, using a wired (Ethernet) connection.
    Make sure you have a cabled connection to your router. Then open a web browser, and type the router’s IP address into the address bar. For example, this is http://192.168.0.1
    If you log in successfully, you should then see the router configuration screen.
    2) Change the router login password.
    To change the router password, find a menu option such as Setup, Tools, Administration, Basic Settings, Management, or Utilities.
    Set and confirm a new login password. Click ‘Save/Apply’ when finished.
    3) Change the SSID (network name):
    The SSID or Network Name is the name you see when you are looking for an ‘available wireless network’.
    To access this setting, find a menu option such as Wireless, Wireless Security, Security, or perhaps Advanced Settings.
    Change the SSID from the default, to anything you like. It is case sensitive, and you can use up to 32 letters – but do not use something that could identify you, or your location. Click ‘Save’ or ‘Apply’ when finished.
    4) Enable WPA encryption
    Find the Wireless Security or Wireless Encryption Options section - often in the same section as the SSID (eg for Netgear – it’s still in Wireless Settings).
    You may have a number of encryption options. Select WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK (good choices to start with).
    You then need to enter a network key. The box to enter this may be labelled Network Key: it may also be labelled WPA-PSK, WPA Shared Key, PSK, Security key, Passphrase, Pre-shared key, Authentication key .
    Note down your network key carefully. You will need this to connect wirelessly. Click ‘Apply/Save’ when finished.
    That's it - you have done enough to secure your network, and can close the screen.

    Need help dynex security sync wireless

    according to the manual that i have, the model if the router that you have, DX-E401, is just a broadband router and doesn't have wireless capability. if that would be the correct model of your device, there's no way that you can enable the wireless encryption since it doesn't have wireless capability. but if you are really using a wireless dynex router, follow the steps below on how to access the router's page and enable the security.

    access the router's setup page by typing http://192.168.0.1 on the address bar of your web browser (i.e. internet explorer, firefox etc). by default the username is admin, then leave the password blank.
    you will be prompted with the router's page, now go to the wireless settings and look for the encryption field and enbale wpa from there.

    if you are not sure whether your router has wireless capability or if you are using another wireless router just give me the exact model and brand then ask me

    Belkin 54 encryption

    1. Log into your Wireless Router or Access Point.
    Open your web browser and type in the IP address of the Wireless
    Router or Access Point. (The Router’s default is 192.168.2.1, the
    Access Point’s default is 192.168.2.254.) Log into your Router by
    clicking on the “Login” button in the top, right-hand corner of the
    screen. You will be asked to enter your password. If you never set
    a password, leave the password field blank and click “Submit”.
    Click the “Wireless” tab on the left of your screen. Select
    the “Encryption” or “Security” tab to get to the security
    settings page.
    2. Select “128-bit WEP” from the drop-down menu.
    3. After selecting your WEP encryption mode, you can type in
    your hex WEP key manually, or you can type in a passphrase
    in the “Passphrase” field and click “Generate” to create a WEP
    key from the passphrase. Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You
    must now set all of your clients to match these settings. A hex
    (hexadecimal) key is a combination of numbers and letters from
    A—F and 0—9. For 128-bit WEP, you need to enter 26 hex keys.
    For example:
    C3 03 0F AF 4B B2 C3 D4 4B C3 D4 E7 E4 = 128-bit key
    4. Click “Apply Changes” to finish. Encryption in the Wireless
    Router is now set. Each of your computers on your wireless
    network will now need to be configured with the same
    security settings.
