where do i find wep key?

Answer 1

The WEP key is stored in your routers configuration, unless its not your router you are trying to connect to......

Answer 2

Why did you loose one? ;-)

Wireless Encryption Protocol is used between a wireless router and a client station ( And for you purists it can also be used in Ad-Hoc mode but i'll not discuss that here) to encrypt the communication between both devices. On the client side running Windows XP and using Windows Zero Config tool, the wep key for the network (if already configured) would be found under the properties sheet for the wireless interface, then select the wireless tab. The SSID of the network will be displayed in the window if already configured, you should be able to select the SSID and then hit the advanced button and configure or reconfigure the WEP key..

AS for configuring the router that will depend on the Make and model of the router..

This a fairly general reponse since you did not provide enough information for a precise answer..

Answer 3

If you are using a wireless device that is running windows CE (pretty common) there should be a wireless icon in the tool tray on the lower left of your screen. When you double click on it a screen comes up that shows you the i.p adress and so forth. There should be a properties or advanced button. That will show you the WEP key.

On the router or the configuration which will be the likelyness of where your WEP key located.
