    Entering WiFi Password


    I just got a new router.


    But I can't find where to enter the password!


    I have gone into Settings/Network & Internet but the list on the left is Status, Ethernet, Dial-Up, VPN & Proxy. No mention of WiFi.


    I have gone to 'Show available Networks' and it goes to Status, tells me I am connected but have no internet! Yes, I know that but how do I enter my password?????

    :)

    Help with changing wifi password?

    So are you saying that I should enter my "PW" into the field and then I will get to the wifi or wireless settings page?

    Help with changing wifi password?

    That section is for the password you enter to get into the routers settings. You need to go to your WiFi or wireless settings page, look for the security options, and the WiFi password will be listed as either Password, or Key, or WPA Key.

    On my router it's the Password (Network Key) block:

    Entering WiFi Password

    How/where do I enter WiFi password to join company WiFi?


    I have my laptop at work and have had no trouble connecting the company WiFi (they have Guest WiFi and a WiFi where you need to enter your company provided Username and Password). I have been connecting using my Username and password.
    Today I had to change my company login password. Now when I try to connect my laptop I get a "can't connect" message because the password saved in my laptop is no longer valid. But I can't find a place in Win10 to enter my new password.

    I remember the first time I logged onto the company WiFi a Windows popup came up asking for my Username and Password (which was saved so I didn't need to enter it again - until now). This time not getting the popup - it just says "can't connect".
