blizeH Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Silly question maybe, but did you buy the wireless adapter for the Xbox 360? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mod Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Is the WEP not on a label on the bottom of the modem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sexelk Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 do you not set the WEP key yourself when you set up the network (kinda like a password) of course the simple solution would be to not be a fanboy and get a ps3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkw Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 the wep key is one you choose, you need to enable wireless security first. can you get access to the router? its usually done by entering http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 and going into the settings. the wep keycan be anything you want it to be and will need entering on the xbox when setting up the network. you may also need to forward some ports, this site will help http://www.portforward.com/english/routers...routerindex.htm.

Dubzz 6 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 (edited) Yeah, the 192.168.0.1 is the one that works for mine, usually your asked for a password.. the password is always password, and the username is admin. (It SHOULD be) Then you click on wireless settings down the left hand side, and at the bottom will be 4 codes, each with your WEP key http://img4.imageshack.us/my.php?image=64880138.jpg Edited April 13, 2009 by Dubzz 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad_mac Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Sexelk, I've just bought the PS3 and have a wireless router set up for my home laptop. How easy is it to get the PS3 to recognize I have a wireless router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruh Buh Juh Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 its impossible. sell it and buy an xbox. there much better. (fanboy fight ahead) Agreed.
