If you mean router, then you only need to supply the passphrase the first time you connect to your wireless network. After that, you won't need to provide it as it will automatically connect to the network - unless you change the passphrase. Do you mean automatically connects to the router or modem?

Not sure if going with such an old router was a good idea, but someone suggested it to me and it seems to be working fine. Your post was very simple and useful in getting things set up. I have a similar question to a previous post. Just wanted to confirm that the connection is secure even though my laptop automatically connects to the modem, without asking the pass key.Question: Would an outside user be required to provide the pass key?Thanks again, Mathieu Hello,

Did you have any add-ins/plugins loaded in Firefox? If you did, try running Firefox in safe mode to see if that corrects the problem.

I use Mac and tried it on both Mac firefox and safari - I got the same result as you - nothing happens. I then tried it on PC firefox - STILL didn;t work. It did work for me in IE for PC. Hope it works for you. I had the same issue. I use Mac and tried it on both Mac firefox and safari – I got the same result as you – nothing happens. I then tried it on PC firefox – STILL didn;t work.
