internet connect password

I have a wireless connection (eircom) in my house. My boyfriend is here with his laptop now and we want to enter the security code so he can use our broadband. where would i find this on my Mac iBook G4 or can you find it somewhere?? Don't have the papers to hand where it is...

thanks

logging into your router should get it for you...

type 192.168.1.1 into an address bar in a web browser.

i think it will prompt you for a login which is i think for eircom it's a long time since i set up an eircom broadband connection forgive me or other correct me if i'm wrong

username: admin
password: serial number of your wireless router

by security you mean the encryption key to stop others connecting to your wireless network. you should be able to generate new encryption keys once inside the routers menu.

192.168.1.1

should i be typing my own i.p in?

Try:
192.168.1.254
192.168.0.1
192.168.0.254

it should be the local ip - not the ip you broadcast to the internet - you type in, i was sure it's 192.168.1.1 on eircom routers. mustn't be
