  • 1.  WLAN password requires hexadecimals!

    Hi I have a problem.
    My nx6110 laptop had to have windows reinstalled. Everything works except that when I try to connect to my wireless network, there is a message that says that the password has to be in 128 or 256 bits or hexadecimal. What is that? My password is rather easy. How do I solve the problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    What type of security are you using?
    When you want to attach to a wireless network you need to provide a key. The key for WPA would be N hexadecimal digits.

    You may be confusing "My password" with a passphrase?

    It was a faulty password key. I misread it in the documents.
    Sorry for asking about something that I could have solved by reading the instructions......
