Greetings I just purchased a laptop and can't seem to get
it online with my other two computers (desktops)...I
strong believe it's because of the encryption key...I
wrote it down several months ago but can't find it, my
question is how do I establish or get the key from my
desktops or do I have to reload the software for the
router.......Help

Mack,

My take is if you haven't changed your WEP/WPA key on
your desktops for "months", its time to chnage them for
security reasons alone. So, think of this as an
opportunity.

IF you're hardwired to the MN-700 through one PC, change
it on the base station through that one first. If you
are connected only wirelessly, change it on the base
staion via the \\192.168.2.1\ call in IE6. Either "cut
and paste" the new key you made-uo, or manually type your
new key, into to your adapter settings and reconnect to
the base station. Do the same in the adapters of all your
PCs.
