Is Linksys 192.168.1.1 set-up page necessary? Why?

I'm guessing the second password is your wireless. You can find that in the router configuration web page

Linksys support said the wireless password and the security key are one in the same. My desktop connects automatically each time I go online. For other computers or devices in the area, I only need to put the security key in one time and they too will automatically connect each time in future. Thanks for your time.

Windows 7 has secured password (optional)

Router config. has secured password and is same as wireless(password) security key.

For me, there are a total of 2 only passwords involved.

Exactly, Just make sure that you put a check in the checkbox to remember the password when you're connection to the wireless network with a windows 7 machine.

Thanks everyone, I entered the wireless password into each of my computers and tablet(s) around the house and connected on each. In my case, I only needed to enter the this password one-time each and now they connect automatically each time I use a computer. I don't need to enter this wireless password each time I go online.

Sidebar...... I have computer passwords on all of my machines so I do need enter these each time, no problem. Thank You!
