well, we recently had a power outage in ohio. i moved my laptop and TV to my store (it still had power), expecting that it would work. i tried connecting to the wireless, and got the dialogue saying that my security setting weren't matching with the router's (along those lines). it is a WEP encypted network, but last time i checked WEP didn't require any password.
anything I'm doing wrong?

WEP needs a network key which you can find in the router config.

how do i enter the password? i don't get the option when i try to connect.

You need to open the wireless adapter interface and do the change there.
Select wireless properties and then select security.Attached Files:

how do i get to the connectivity menu when i can't connect to a network? my home network is down, and all surrounding networks are WPA enabled. if possible, can i connect through Ethernet and then attempt to access the connectivity menu for wireless?

you should be asked to enter a key when trying to connect, if not just try going to the network and sharing center and click add a network. you should just need the ssid (name), and the network key (password).
