I have a D-Link DIR-615 router. I would like to add a device to the network. However, I have forgotten the pre-shared key. I logged into the router via the product page. I then followed: wireless settings/manual wireless network set to find the encrypted pre-shared key with no apparent way to decode. Can I recover this key? I really do not want to completely reprogram the network.
I thought there was a check box in this model that enabled you to see the password/key. If not then you may have to do a factory reset and set-up everything from scratch. Cannot remember if this model has a guest mode, but if the device you are connecting is not critical, TV, BlueRay, Roku etc, then enable the guest mode without a password to connect. These devices will NOT connect to other things on the network, but if they only need internet access it may be OK.

Even though we need more info to resolve the issue, I will make a guess here. My guess is that your D-Link is not configured right, (ie. not pulling the proper info from your ISP's DHCP server.
Try restarting the router and restart or repair your network connection on your pc. Secondly, try to do a "hard reset" on the router, or restore to default. Then reset your connection on the PC. Third, manually set the info on the router.
If you are wireless, you have a whole different issue.

an easy way around this is to do a factory reset then set up wifi security using wpa-psk and use the serial number for the pre-shared key.

Connect a LAN cable to the router and computer. Open your WEB Internet Explorer and your in the router's URL IP configuration address.
This will be 192.168.0.1 and the default Login = admin and the default password = (blank) just press Enter.
You can now change the default password.
