In a home wireless lan with NETWORK MAGIC, access from the secondary computers to the files that are share-enable on the main computer is denied unless a password is provided. A password has never been entered.
The password of the router is not accepted.
All the most usual passwords (e.g. "admin") have been tried in vain.
The so-called helpline of NETWORK MAGIC is of no help either.
Any suggestions would be appreciated

In a domestic wireless network you don't need it, and if it has started playing-up, you definitely don't need it.

Dump it and use the standard network wizard.

If you can see the main computer from the secondary computers, it's not the router asking for the password. It's the computer itself. Try inputting the username and password of that main computer.
