I was told by the people who repaired my laptop that I need to find the network key. It is lost. What should I do? They did not recommend totally resetting up the D Link Wireless router as an option. It's a DI-524. I don't know how to get the network key or how to reset it. It's not in the instruction manual for the wireless router on how to accomplish this. Does anyone have any idea on the easiest way to solve this issue?

You should have an 800 number for the router manufacturer. You need to call them and they will help you with the key. It may or may not be on the router. I have Linksys, and mine is NOT on the router itself. Once you get it, put it in notepad, or a document that only you know about, and lock the document. Just don't forget the password! And while you have the router customer service on the line, have them help you set up security on your wireless connection. They'll be glad to help you.

You set the key when you set up the router to broadcast a wireless network. It should be possible to see or change the key somewhere in the router's configuration interface. Check the manual or call your router's manufacturer if you need help finding it.

The key is on the actual router itself.
