CONNECTION SETTINGS WITH 3DS AND MY NETGEAR ROUTER

TRYING TO HOOK UP TO MY NETGEAR WNR2000 ON MY GAMEBOY 3DS SO I CAN ORDER GAMES ON-LINE.  I KNOW THE SSID BUT NOT SURE OF SECURITY SETTINGS.  I BELIEVE ITS WPA-PSK (TKIP) BUT THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS.  THEN IT ASKS FOR THE SECURITY KEY.  WHERE CAN I FIND THAT NUMBER?

Model: WNR2000|Wireless-N Router

What asks for the security key? That's usually the password for your wifi. Unless you have changed it, the default password is on the label on the thing.

 

Don't expect a lot from your old router. It dates back to 2009 and has very old technology.

 

Manuals are always a good place to start.

Visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

You have posted your message in the section of this community given over to Nighthawk WiFi Routers. (This is easily done, given Netgear's complicated community structure.)

Many questions apply to different types of device, so there may be useful responses here, but you might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:

General WiFi Routers (Non-Nighthawk) - NETGEAR Communities


PS No need to SHOUT. It is hard to read.
