[dba-Tech] wireless trouble

I read in the instructions once for one of my routers that it had a reset
button that set it back to factory spec including wiping out the WEP.  It
may be a small button you need to poke with a paper clip.

===========When installing the router, it didn't ask for a key. When
installing the adapter the first time around (on a different system), it is
possible that I entered a key, but I can't find it written down anywhere --
I have a pw that I use for everything (I know, I know...) and it doesn't
work.

Are you saying I need to start over from scratch and reinstall the router
too?
