Got a laptop and it wants my WEP key but I can't seem to find it.

Don't give me a 'cant be done' answer.

Try disabling any encryption you have on your line, and seeing if it works then. Once you have all your computers talking to each other as they should, then you can start to think about security.

This hurts

I need to bloody do something with other computers on the network.
Why can't it just do it?

Could be Tools > Internet Options > Never dial a connection. Few other LAN settinGs that might need changing, but not sure if they apply to wi-fi - probably do. Ah the joys of connecting up wireless laptops.

I somehow made up a WEP and connected to the wireless network.

Can't seem to access the internet though, tried setting up a connection but *dies*.

You should be able to log into your wireless access point from your old computer and at the very least change the WEP key to something you know. If your old computer fell off a cliff or something, a last resort would be to reset your access point to its factory settings, which presumably don't include WEP being set.
