Hi @Budwisely,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding finding your network security key!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

 

Try these steps:

Check Your Router

  1. Locate Your Router: Find your wireless router. The default network security key is often written on a sticker attached to the router itself.
  2. Router Sticker: Look for terms like 'WPA Key,' 'WEP Key,' 'Wireless Key,' or 'Password.'

Windows Computer

  1. Open Network Settings:
    • Right-click the Wi-Fi icon in the system tray at the bottom right corner of the screen.
    • Open Network & Internet settings.
  2. View Network Properties:
    • Navigate to Status and click on Network and Sharing Center.
    • Click on your network name (beside Connections:).
    • Select Wireless Properties and then Security tab.
    • Check the box Show characters to reveal your network security key.

Using Your Router’s Web Interface

  1. Router Login: Connect to your router's web interface by entering its IP address in a web browser (e.g., http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1).
  2. Login: Login using the router’s username and password (default credentials are often provided in the router manual or on the router).
  3. Wireless Settings: Navigate to Wireless or Wi-Fi settings to find the current network security key.

Steps involving machine setup for obtaining network information:

  1. Print Configuration Report:
    • If available, print a network configuration report from your printer settings to identify network details.
  2. Access Advanced Settings:
    • Follow the steps to use USB cable connections for initial setup and find network settings.

I hope this helps.
