Here is another episode: thomson site is 192.168.1.254

It does have a facility to change the password - click toolbox then
user management then change the password. Clicking on there it
obviously asks for present password which is where the problem lies. I
have put the modem through returning to factory defaults which may or
may not be useful. I have gone through printed papers I have. I have
found these settings:

Network name:
Network key (WEP/WPA key)
cdec481847824016b6d39409af822ed3blec97483681084c5edle001f0bdb745 -
could this be the password?
Key provided automatically (802.1x): 0
Network authentication type: WPAPSK
Data encryption Type:WPAPSK
Data encryption Type: TKIP
Connection Type: ESS
Key Index:

Do you think that the long string is the password?

I hope someone can help. By Tuesday I may get assistance. I am also
ringing the broadband help

Thanks

The long string (64 characters) is what your iPhone needs to talk to the
router, try putting that in when the iPhone asks for the password

I have tried these steps but I can't enter my password - this is
hindering me considerably as I don't know it. I have tried 3 passwords
that I know of and which I use most of the time but other than that I
am stuck.

No hope.

I have Windows XP, Vista, 2 x W7 trial and 1 x W7 Ultimate (Xmas PREZ!!) on
my network and the wife has an Iphone. No probs at all. I would check the
Iphone settings.

BULLSHIT! I have XP, Vista, W7 trials and W7 full bought version all sharing
the network, all using internet and all sharing files between each other.
