Where do you find the WEP key on your router?

Is it called something else? I'm trying to set up a Nintendo DS for use on the internet and its axing for a WEP key but there is no mention of a WEP key on the router.

you should be able to access the router settings via your pc, it will tell you on there.

It doesn't show a WEP number anywhere

The WEP key is in your wireless settings..

WEP is one of the wireless security methods. The router is telling your DS that before it can access the net a password (the WEP key) has to be entered. Ask whoever set up the router's security what the key is or look under the wireless settings bit of your router's setup page

Note that the DS is only compatible with WEP security, not WPA (which is more secure). My guess is that your router is set to WPA and you need to change to WEP if you want to go online with the DS.
