You have to get into the routers configuration. You will need to know your ip address and if you don't know it then follow these instructions:
1. On your PC enter this in the search box(for older windows click on run and then enter) cmd.
2. At the DOS prompt type in ipconfig. The default gateway is your ip address. If you can't access it that way try one of these ip addresses
192.168.0.1
192.168.1.1
Some SMC routers use 192.168.2.1
3. once you are in the main SMC screen you will want to go to the wireless security category or the wireless setup category. In one of those you will find how to rename and set up fo a WEP,WPA,etc.....
3. In the "Network and Internet Connections" window, click on "Network Connections."
4. Once in Network Connections, right-click on the wireless connection then select "View available wireless networks"
5. If the wireless network is a secured network, please refer to the
manual of the wireless router to make it unsecured for the purpose of
testing the wireless network.
NOTE: Acer does not recommend leaving a wireless network
unsecured and is not responsible for data accessed due to unsecured
wireless networks.
6. If the wireless network is listed, the wireless adapter is
functioning properly. If unable to connect to the wireless router, go
through "Before you start" at the beginning of this article.
