Your so called network key is your SSID password which is located in your router. You need to log in to your router and go to the wireless tab and you will find your password for your SSID there.

when trying to connect my phone to my printer i put my ssid in and it says wrong password.......... i am totally confused

I found my SSID for my router, but its not the security key for my HP wireless printer. Is there another way to find the security key for my printer?

What security key are you talking about exactly?

[Briana_mich]

The network security key

[sabretooth04]

OK, that information is located in your router. It is the same password that you use for your computer to log onto your network. It is under the wireless tab in your routers admin pages.

I tried it but it won't work

Please remove the security password off the routes SSID temporarily. Now see if you can connect to your unsecured SSID. Are you successful? If yes, go back and add WPA2-AES encryption with a password and try again.
