- Network Security (http://www.daniweb.com/forums/forum167.html)

- - Network Key (http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread38685.html)

I have a wireless network on a Netgear router and a wireless router. I want to connect my XDA mini S to the network via the WiFi but I need to enter a network key on the phone.

However the problem is that I do not know how to check my network key for the router. Without the key I cannot connect my phone. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

use your computer to access the router settings then wireless settings then security and it'll be in there somewhere

Usually you just paste the ip of the router into your web browser. I think netgears are usually 192.168.0.1 network:

http://192.168.0.1

If you don't know the ip you can try clicking start-->run-->then type cmd and click "OK". In the command prompt type: ipconfig and press "Enter" on the keyboard. If there's a "gateway address" that will the the number to type after http:// in your browser.

Ethernet adapter Wireless:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.105
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

when performing the above I receive media state....media disconnected.
how is this resolved?
