Hey Guys,

Recently bought an Iphone and when in the house want to use the wireless connection for it's browser. It asked for a password, I didn't have it so I went in to my router and set privacy off - I'd prefer not to keep it like that, but I can't see anywhere in the router control panel to change the password or even where to enter it. On top of that, the drop down menu where the wireless privacy setting are have 3 other options for privacy and I can't remember which it was set to: WEP: Automatic, WPA 802.1 x or WPA PSK.

Any help very much appreciated.

Thanks

Also, do not use WEP.
