    I have just purchased a HP Pavilion 6840 laptop wireless enabled.
    I have a Netophia 2247NWG Wireless router. This is one of the Eircom ones.
    It was in the box never usedd
    sent out by Eircom who were then unable to supply DSL at my daughters home and never retreived.
    I am with BT and followed the advice posted hand no problem changing the passwords and gaining access to my normal wired BT DSL connection.
    to the desktop. This wired connection is working fine.
    However when I try to connect Laptop via wireless I can see
    ...Eircom 2731 ???? Security-enabled network .... very strong signal.
    When I select that it asks for Security Key of passphrase.
    I have no idea of what this is as I did not set up one at any time.

    I presume Eircom 2731 ???? is my router as that is the number shown under the expert mode in the route configuration. ????

    Any advice on this setup problem.

    The number Eircom 2731 ???? is coded for purpose of this posting.
    I can see this one with a very strong signal and one other with a very weak signal which must be external.

    Can anyone advise me on how to get around this problem. ??

    Thanks for any help
