Re: Please is there any WEP or WAP key that I can freely...
Any encryption key will be specific to a network so no there is not a free universal key. If you find a non encrypted network like at Panera Bread Co. then you don't need a key.

Theencryption 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, configure the router'swireless settings ie SSID, plus the WPAor WPA2 encryption key and then configure wireless cards in the laptops and orcomputers with these router's wireless settings. Then the laptops and desktopcomputers can communicate with your wireless router.
Try going into the system then device manager uninstall the wifi driver. Reboot the pc and it should auto load the driver when getting back on the desktop. Then see if it ask for the WEP key The wifi driver will say 802.g 111 or something so you know its not the 10/100 network.
By going to the security setting in the router and assigning a WAP/WEP "Key" this will then enable security. Please consult your manual for how to do this.
1. Your router is the issue. It is asking for the WEP password or Network Key. This is set up in the Wireless router. You either know the password or have it written down. If you are the administrator of the the router and don't remember the password or user name you will have to reset the route to factory default settings and go through the setup wizard and choose and create and save a new user name and password / WEP/WAP key. Consult your router cd for the instruction set. It will walk you through.
This could be because the encryption settings in the wireless router has not been entered into the wireless card configuration.

If the wireless card is an old model it possibly won't support WAP encryption. The wireless router most likely supports both WEP and WAP encryption.
WEP is not as secure as WAP so use the highest bit encryption that is available to you.
The WEP key is something you designate on your own router. IF you are trying to get into someone else's router you need to ask them for permission to have their WEP key. Otherwise you cant get in. If you forget your WEP key you can do a hard reset on the router to clear out the key.
ok do one thing at first remove the power adapter from the router and put in at same time when you put in the power adapter cable at that time you have to press the reset button give in the back side of the router you have to do at least press the button upto five sec. after then you have to configure agian your router .
after configuration your router then go to the wireless option in ther enable the the wireless secutiy. and one option is there in wireless secutiy in that the wep,wap, wep+wap keys is there .enable the wep key and protect your router.
