    Hello i moved into a house and there is wireless internet connection but I can get onto it. The router is netgear its a white thing and NTL is the provider.
    I don't have a laptop or pc there I only have a psp.
    When I got to scan for divicies it says the router has a wepcode. None of the lads in the house use it.
    any idea's how to get it?

    You will have to borrow a laptop or bring the router to a friend's house who has a pc or laptop. You can access the router by entering http:/192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 it may ask you for a sign in and password usually these are admin and password respectively. You will then be able to access the router settings and you should be able to find out what the wireless password is.

    If yo uhave a Look at the bottom of the router thier'll be a map of what each Ethernet port is and a section marked "Default access" that'll give you the IP address to enter into IE or firefox, and the username & password,


    once your in on the left hand side their should be a section marked "wireless settings" you'll get your WEP key in there
