The Network Key you're probably asking for is on a sticker located, underneath the router. Can you check?

Here's a way to configure your router for your existing network (assuming you already have one) :

If you have an existing network, chances are you have already configured network services on the network. In this case, you would use the router as a pure Access Point to extend the range of your network by allowing more attachment of wireless and wired computers. You MUST also turn off the DHCP server on the router if there is a DHCP server running to avoid IP address conflict.

To configure the router as an Access Point with the DHCP server disabled:

1. Open your web browser and go to http://my.router, (or the default address http://192.168.2.1.)
   

2. Click the Basic Settings tab on the top navigation bar.
   

3. Select Access Point Mode.
   

4. Click the Next button.
   

5. Click OK to dismiss the DHCP disabled message box (The DHCP server will be disabled in Access Point Mode by default).
   

6. Click the Advanced Settings tab on the top navigation bar.
   

7. Click the Advanced IP Settings tab on the left navigation bar.
   

8. Assign an IP address to the Wireless Broadband Router.
   
   NOTE: The IP address should be reserved by the DHCP server. The Wireless Broadband Router cannot act as a DHCP client, therefore, it needs a static IP address for its LAN interface.
   
   

9. Click the Submit button.
   

10. Click the Save & Restart button.
    

11. Note the status bar at the bottom of the screen.
    

12. While the Wireless Broadband Router resets, the Power light on the front of the unit blinks.
    

13. When your web browser returns to the main page of the Wireless Broadband Route, the device has successfully restarted with the new settings.
    NOTE: The main page may not return if you have changed IP address of the router in Step 8. To view the main page, type the new IP address of the router in the web browser to access it.
    

    
    
    

14. Plug an Ethernet cable from the existing local network into any LAN port on the Wireless Broadband Router.

Well dell has ther online chat support team which is only avalibe intell 5 PM during the day only.

Yes.

Just ensure you configure your new HP pc with the same security code and password you used on your old Dell.

You may need to enable the wireless signal within the router settings, but you will have to connect to it via an RJ45 lan cable, as you would of when you first set it up. Type in the routers ip address in your internet browser and get into the routers settings that way.

Before you throw it, save all the settings in router and try a re-start or there is normally a re-set button somewhere to press and set it back to factory settings. If the wireless re starts re-load previous settings. Please rate solution.
