I recently reset my Belkin router and now when my daughter signs onto the network(in another room) it asks for a security key. This didn't happen before reset. My daughter would just connect to the network. My question is: How to I set it up where she does not have to enter a pass key, and where in properites or set up do I find the paraphrase code to give to her.

In Windows when you establish the connection to the router, it asks for the passcode based on the encryption used.

Sounds like either the passcode has been lost, or corrupted and is wrong, or your daughters computer is close to another router and trying to use it.

Try creating a new wireless connection and putting in the passkey and saving it.

This might also be a good time for you to consider upgrading to a higher encryption if the PC and router are capable.

Good luck.
