What is a WPA2-PSK(TKIP)? How can you figure out what it is for your router?

WPA2 stands for Wi-Fi Protected Access verision 2 and it's currently the best way to secure a wireless network. The PSK part of it stands for Pre-Shared Key and it means you need to know the pword to get on the network. Someone had to set up the pword when they set up the router and if no one knows it, you're pretty much out of luck- it was designed to keep people from finding it. If you already have a computer connected to the router, either through the wireless connection or plugged in with an ethernet cable, you can usually open up a web browser and go to a href="http://192.168.1.1." rel="nofollow"http://192.168.1.1./a If that doesn't work, check the router's information for the IP address. Once there, you can change the pword.
