|Rapture| Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Access your router and see what you configured there. If you're not sure how to do that check the manual and look at wireless configuration.

Jimmy0 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I am going to assume "Wireless Passwords"? Why don't you just access your router (look on your router and it should give you details somewhere on the machine itself).

Gally Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 As long as its not used illegally its probably fine. Its not illegal to crack your own WEP. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/642088-finding-wep-key-on-vista/#findComment-589466907 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WooSH Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 wait. dont you need like a wireless antenna receptor thingy for that? so essentially i can do this with any wireless network, with my wireless network card? Install Cain and do a sniff? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/642088-finding-wep-key-on-vista/#findComment-589466973 Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.r.l. Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Hmm, he's not cracking any passwords, he just want to see saved passwords... I mean, he's running it on his own computer to look at his own network's password. What does any of this have to do with wireless cards and yadda yadda, it's just keys saved in Windows by the WLAN Auto Config service. http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/wireless_key.html That's all you need, a free utility that works out of box, just run the .exe file.

Gally Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 (edited) funciona said: We don't know if its his or another persons. I wasn't him who suggested cain, from what he was asking I have no reason to believe he's trying to do anything illegal, anyway I would suggest getting it from your router, find the model number, google it to find a users manual and that should tell you how to do it, otherwise you can access your router via web browser by going to 192.168.1.1 or 198.168.1.2 or something like that. If your using vista Click Start/network right click on router and select "view device webpage" EDIT: Or just do what Jay R. says.

funciona Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 Quote Windows 2000 is not supported, because this version of operating system doesn't save the network passwords. That sucks.

omganinja Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Why/How do you have a wireless network with WEP if you for one, dont know the WEP key and how to access it and two, can't download and use a simple application without step by step instructions? What kind of router do you have? (Once you tell us we can tell you how to access the routers WEB UI and find the WEP key.)
