I saw Mark Wilson's general answer. To embelish: If your vendor is using a static WEP key, you'd run into the problem that these keys are write-only. The firmware is not going to give you what you want. You will not find the key in a config file or the windows registry. If your vendor is doing LEAP, then the WEP keys are determined freshly for each session. |

Before your ISP comes over to setup the box, install a keylogger. I'd think you could find the information regarding SSID and WEP rather reliably that way. I mean, heck. If they want you to provide a computer to use, shouldn't you be able to install things that you wish? -Lostxam |

The ISP would not likely set static wep keys at your keyboard. One of the reasons they would choose Cisco is for the fact that the keys are stored in firmware.
