WEP stands for wireless encryption protocol. You must have set up a WEP key (password) to secure your wireless network at home to prevent unauthorised users. This is the password it is asking for. Think of some popular passwords you've used in the past and try entering these as you can have the WEP key stored in your laptop so wouldn't necessarily enter it every time.

WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy, the network you are trying to connect to requires a WEP key, so you will need to ask the network administrator what the WEP key is, and enter it into your phone before the network will allow you access. See Sources for a wikipedia article on WEP.

Wep is an encryption mechanism used by wifi routers.
If you don't know the wep key of a wep encrypted wifi access point, then you can't connect to it.
WEP is 10 or 26 characters long.
If you manage a wifi router, you should know its wep key (except if you configured it to be nonencrypted which is not safe).

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
It is the protocol that ensures encryption between your phone and the P.C.
Your PC will have a key (A long string of letters and Numbers) which you will have to enter into your phone so to allow the connection.

you're able to do this in basic terms, in case you have your guy or woman on the spot router. once you configure your on the spot community on your router, it is going to ask you in case you want to maintain it unsecured or secured (with a password, or community key). in case you have that on the spot router, you ought to be first plugged into that with an ethernet or usb cable. Then login to the default getway handle that your computing gadget is getting. you will locate your on the spot settings below there. enable me understand in case you desire greater help in this.
