R6220 Unable to locate Network security code

I am trying to add another device to my network and it is asking for the network security code (not the network password0.  I entered what I had recorded as the security code and it's not working.  I would like to locate the network security code I used to set up my laptop but need assistance.  Can anyone give me instructions?

    What are you trying to add? Network wifi or wired?

    I'm not familiar with the "network security code". It isn't something that appears in Netgear's documentation. Could it be the WiFi "security password" (network key)?

     

    Unless you changed it – always a good idea – that is written on the bottom of the R6220.
