Hello, can someone please help me.My friend is livebox connected and I want to link up using WiFi but my PC see's the livebox but is unable to connect. There seems to be a padlock symbol showing that needs to be unlocked. I have asked my friend who cannot get into the livebox software as he has forgotten his username and password. I have tried ringing Orange to no avail. What can I do?
the padlock it the wep key which is written on the bottom of the livebox, also make sure you press the number 1 button on the livebox to sync it wiv pc otherwise it will just be a pending connection :O)

the number 1 button is on the back of the livebox, there is a number 1 and number 2 button. if you push number 1 it will go into pairing mode and the lights on top of your livebox will flash, when its flashing/after youve pressed it you will have 10 minties to connect to it.
Exactly when am I supposed to press that Button Number 1?
I can only connect my iPod Touch or/and my laptop when the light is flashing (which it does automatically when I enable wifi in the LIvebox security configuration settings). Then, after a few days or so, it stops flashing and I lose any ability to connect. Sometimes this happens while I am connected. Pressing Button 1 does nothing. I click on the LIvebox icon, disable Wifi, then re-enable it. The light flashes, and I connect.
The manual (in Spanish) mentions nothing about using the buttons (or any other feature other than basic installation).
Help! It's driving me crazy!
im not sure bout your ipod, im still in the old days of using the mp3 player lol, but as for the laptop you should be able to set it to automatically connect everytime you use it, on windows you just select the option; start connection automatically when in range (or similar) when connecting.
You press the number 1 BEFORE typinging in security key and ok-ing that on the computer, if its not pressed the connection will 'pend' because the livebox isnt sending out signals to connect but after it IS connected and set to do automatically then it should do it all the time.
You need to make sure that wifi is always enabled, as for it cutting out when using it, that may be because the router is doing updates, this can be disabled in the routers interface which is usually a number typed into a browsers address bar, but I dont know it 4 livebox.
wow, just read this. I've gave up trying to get my iphone connected months ago, then came across this post, tried it (pressing the one on the box before I entered the WEP key as password on my phone) and voila! I can't believe I am FINALLY connected. Thank YOU!!!!!
yes the password is the digits on the bottom of the box, I think it says WEP key next to it, when connectin wii press the number 1 button on the livebox to start syncing it put in the password (WEP key-digits) on the wii. The password is case sensistive so make sure you have the capitals on and dont worry about typing in the - between, only the numbers/letters. :O)
Thanks for the heads up, but even tweeking the items you suggested I still have no connection. In fact the error messages state:
1) Limited or No Connectivity (I have tried to repair this and I got the following error message :- Invalid IP address)
2) I have tried to set up the network but it doesn't register the WIFI product being disconnected and reconnected and throws up a microsoft error message 871122
The padlock symbol has still not been released from my network connections diagram, so I can see info is being passed from my PC to the livebox but it is not communicating with me.
hi yes you can, you have to reset the router, its a tiny button somewhere on the router usually use a paperclip ect to push it, usuall found by other buttons
