Help Need Help setting up secure wifi connection on TP

[flying finn]

My TP picks up my dlink dir655 router signal perfectly, but it is an open connection. During setup on Prime, it asks for network ssid and then a security line. Choices are wep, wpa/wpa2 PSK and 802.1x EAP. SSID for dlink is "dlink". I have tried each security setting then adding the password which is the pin # under the router. What am I doing wrong? The pin worked when I used it with my HP laptop. I want it to be a secure connection with the little lock next to my wifi signal.

I don't know whether I'm understanding your question, but the security code is set up on your modem, not on the Prime. The Prime simply detects whether a connection is secure or open.

There should be a factory code sticker on the router that has the type(such as WEP) and then a string of digits and or numbers next to it. The string is the security code.

People had been using my open wifi signal and disabled the security. I went to dlink site entered my model number and updated all new info including new password that I made up instead of the one I had been using from dlink. I have a secure connection now. Thanks.
