How do you find out what your SSID and WEP key are?

I need another way to find my SSID and WEP key?

  • I'm trying to get my DS on Wi-Fi. My Wii is on it but my DS asks for a WEP key. I always find either typing some address into my browser and logging in or resetting my router. I am definably not resetting my router and I don't want to accidentally mess anything up when I log in. Any other ways to find. And don't you even dare mentioning hacking. Hacking is for people with no lives.

  • Answer:

    Log into the router with its IP address, preferably from a computer wired to the router (wired computers don't need the WEP key). The SSID and WEP key should be on the administration web pages. If you don't know the router's IP address, here's how to find it: 1. Click on the Start->Run button. 2. In the text box, type cmd and press Enter. 3. A black "DOS box" will pop up. In it, enter ipconfig /all A bunch of gibberish will fill the box. Next to "Default Gateway" an IP address will appear. This is your router's IP address. Hope that helps.

Your SSID is the name you gave your router when configuring it for wireless- or it's still the default name which is usually the name of the company that makes your router. At any rate it should be the the wi-fi connection that shows up the strongest. As for the password (WEP key), if you don't remember the password you set for your wireless, then the only options are to go to the config screen and get the password from there, or reset the password and use one you'll remember in the future.

You can try contacting the company that provides you with the internet service. Hope I helped

Look on the back of your router, it's most likely on a sticker on the back / bottom.
