Full Version: New Wi-fi network: how do I avoid having to type router security key each time
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I have set-up a new Wi-fi network on the router I normally use. 

LL now asks me for the router's security key each time I want to go on the internet.
How do I avoid this, i.e. having to type in the key each time and instead embed the
security key in LL for auto-logon to the internet?

This problem has not occurred before, as this is the first time I've created a new network
after LL has already been installed. 

Many thanks for any help with this

Is the WiFi (network manager) prompting or chrome prompting for keyring?

Thinking you're meaning the keyring...

Sorry Firenice03, I didn't explain that very well...

...each time I want to go on the internet I am prompted by the WiFi network manager as follows: "Authentification required by Wi-Fi network"
I wasn't referring to unlocking the "login keyring" as I don't use one - that seems like more trouble than it's worth.

How do I automate this process so it logs on to the WiFi network automatically?

Thanks firenice03
Delete all saved network connections, reboot and try again.
