Help with WEP / WAP and Shaw?

Asked By anonymous 7060 points N/A Posted on - 09/19/2012

I am on Shaw and my new computer is not collaborating with my current WEP security wifi. The tech guy said that I need to update from WEP to WAP but a few people have said that I can’t do that with Shaw. Is this true? If so any solutions? And if not then can you tell me how to change it?
Please note that I am not a tech person so PLEASE use simple terms! Thank you!

Hello,

You can update from WEP to WAP by following the below steps.

Type your IP address in your browser. Enter your router login name and password.

Once you are logged in, click on the wireless set up on the left side.

After choosing manual connection setup, scroll down to the end of the page. Select WAP in the wireless security mode. Save the settings after entering the new network key.
