What make an model wireless router?

If you're having problems identifying your own router, you might
consider setting up the router for a unique SSID that will not cause
you any difficulties in identifying.

If your router is setup for WEP, try using the hex encryption key
instead of the ASCII encryption key. If that's not it, try temporarily
turning off encryption and see if that helps. Then figure out what
went wrong with the encryption.
