Open your Access Point GUI and go to wireless setting and go to Security.

You can use encryption key such as WEP,WPA-PSK.WPA2-PSK from your Access Point, its up to you which keys you will use, but i suggest WAP2-PSK.

 To avoid being always asked for the KEY follow this steps:

FOR WINDOWS 7

 Go to Control Panel / Network and Internet / Network and Sharing Center

Click Manage Wireless Networks

Choose your SSID and right click to it.

Select Properties

In Connection TAB CHECK the Connect Automatically when this network is in range.

Go to Security TAB

You will see:

Security Type

Encryption type

Network Security key;

In Network Security key, re-enter your security key and then hit OK.

The major idea behind securing the wireless is enabling the encryption key. There are different types of encryption such as WPA, WPA2, WEP, etc and you can choose any of them.

The first thing you need to do is, go to the router setting and you will find security over there.

And then, you need to find encryption over there;

select the encryption type,

type the encryption key, this encryption key is the password to connect to the wireless LAN.
