Hi

I guess it wants the Wi-Fi password.

 

Which may match your PC profile...


:PROFILE
netsh wlan show profiles

PLEASE NOTE any NETWORK-SSID name(s)
that you want the PASSPHRASE(S) for.


:WIFIKEY
set /p wkey=Please type in the SSID
Please type in the SSID
netsh wlan show profile name=%wkey% key=clear
echo.

 

C:\>netsh wlan show profiles

User profiles

-------------
All User Profile : oakwood_guest
All User Profile : Moto FREE WIFI
All User Profile : Travelodge WiFi
All User Profile : Chessbroadband
All User Profile : The New Inn

 

C:\>netsh wlan show profile name=Chessbroadband key=clear

Profile Chessbroadband on interface WiFi:
Type : Wireless LAN
Name : Chessbroadband
SSID name : "Chessbroadband"
Authentication : WPA2-Personal
Key Content : be981ebj

 

Worth a try?
