Clue: he is trying to get the router password.
Clue: he is using a password generator

The MAC address is one of the inputs to the password generator...I
guess. (and it is, I checked...)

Start -> Run

Type cmd and hit enter.

A black box should come up.

Type arp -a

This gives a list of MAC addresses one of which should be your
router.

Have you got into the router config area?
The sky routers used to have "admin" as user and "sky" as password.
or it could have been "sky" "sky" as user and password I have killed
so many brain cells this Christmas so its not clear.

If you do get into the router you can save/backup your current
router settings to somewhere like desktop then open the file with
notepad and filter out your user name & password from the text.
this could be done with the netgear DG834 but I am not sure about
the newer versions.

Thank you for all your replies
The router is a Sagem
I was thinking of using another router instead as the wireless
coverage is not great

I suspect only Sky know the password! And they probably have formware
that disables the usual reset (or it would wipe out too much).

I remember being given two used BT routers a while ago, and the MAC
address was on a convenient label. I needed that to type into an online
password generator.
