Just call your Internet provider and ask for it.

Your router most likely has some sort of connection encryption enabled. You can find out your router's SSID and key (WEP, WPA, etc.) by opening your router's control panel from any browser. Check your instruction manual to find out what IP address you'll need to get to it. For example, for a Linksys router, the default IP is 192.168.1.1.

Hope this helps.

It's asking for your WEP key

Whoever set up your router put that in.

Just as another member said you have to enter the router from your web browser and then configure the settings (it sounds a lot more complicated then it really is)
