    Ask whoever set up the router.

    And what did they say when you asked them?

    (This is the first I've heard of an Irish ISP providing "SMG adsl barricade g" routers. Who is your provider?)

    MrYellow,

    Have a look underneath the router - it may be written there.

    You might be able to get it from the Gateways Homepage also.

    Open up internet explorer and type in http://192.168.2.1 in the address bar and enter.

    The homepage should come up. Go into wireless settings and the Key should be in there under security. Write it down and enter it when asked for it when connecting to the wireless network.
