From: ITdad08 on 5 May 2008 15:13 I am using a wireless router with a PC running windows XP, when I turn it off I loose the WAP key. Is there a way of retaining the WAP key so I dont have to keep re entering it when I start the PC?
From: Jack (MVP-Networking). on 5 May 2008 17:30 Hi There is No WAP key. Are you referring to WEP, or to WPA? Jack (MVP-Networking).

Mine has programmable settings (retained when power is switched off) that must be set by logging on to the maker's web site via personal ID and password. Do you have a manual for your router? -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)
