are you in ireland and with eircom?

Well ther should be a wirless icon on the botom right corner of your scren right click and say serch for avalibe wirless networks. find the one that is yours. it might ask for a WEP pssword which is on the botom of router. You might have to change some of the wirless adapter setings. just send me a mesage and i would be happy to help.

If your talking about the password for the router user interface that is not working that resetting it again using a pen or a paper clip just press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds then that should bring your router to its default settings with the default username and password.

Firstly... avoid showing your SSID (eircom-123456789) here, as the WEP key can be reverse engineered from the SSID.

To change your SSID, connect your router to your PC with an ethernet cable, go to your web browser (Intenet Explorer, Forefox, etc) and type 192.168.1.254, and press return.

This will open the control panel for the router.
Select 'EXPERT MODE' from the menu on the right, and accept the warning prompt. Then click on 'CONNECTION' and the 'WIRELESS' on the menu on the right.

In the main window you can then change the SSID for your network.

You can also change some of the other options in this window such as enabling closed mode, change security protocol, password, etc.

that means you cant use the wireless to update.
try pluging your xbox into the modem through the ethernet cable
