When I click 'show characters' when viewing my network security key on my wifi connection, the security key is completely different to the one i originally added and is set on my router.
This isn't causing any problems, its set to auto connect and does so fine, and still does if I re type in the original key. I was just wondering why this is happening?
wasn't set properly re run configuration to set your actual key if not anyone can connect
I found this the hard way I set key and password and to my suprise it was open connection for all
Had to go through it again and cut -off the freeloaders
After re configuring my router and code it took place and i can see the network under the name i made
If you dont correct it soon you will be open to anything
You are welcome. When I originally had my router set up for me it was done as WEP with a fairly short key and I had that situation. I have now changed to WPA2 with a longer key and it now shows as character. I would advise using WPA2 if possible. It is much more secure.
+1 to this!I would advise using WPA2 if possible. It is much more secure.
I had switched to WPA2 a few months back, after learning the differences between WEP and WPA in terms of security and vulnerabilities.
