If you need to find the wireless key set up on your router, the Internet Service Provider usually places a tag on the device with the default key.

You can also reset the device to the default factory settings by holding down the reset button for a determined period of time depending on the manufacturer. Then you can log into the device using its IP address and default username and password in order to change the wireless key.

You can visit your router's manufacturer web site for more info on the defaults.

Adding a wired computer or device to the network.

If you router is already set up and you want to add a new computer, you don't need to run the set up CD for the router again.
If you are adding a desktop or any other device to the router which will always be connected to the router with the Ethernet cable, then in this case you don't need to do anything.
You can just connect the Ethernet cable between the router and the computer and it should work.
If you are not able to go online even when it is connected properly then check IP address of the computer.
