    web into the unit ( your gateway adddress ), go to wireless on the menu and then security - if I remember right...

    change your security key - WPA is supported on most things now and offers a bit more than WEP.

    Go to Start - then Run.

    In the box type in cmd and press enter.

    at the Command Prompt type in "ipconfig". The last line will be something like "default gateway". |Take a note of this and type it into you browser - no www or anything. Just the number.

    This is for resetting your security keys.... The menus might be slightly different depending on the exact version of code etc. on your router
