You need to configure same WEP key in your PC/Laptop which you have entered in CPE wi-fi security configuration.
For this go to the properties of Wi-Fi connection, select the tab Wireless Networks. Select the wi-fi network name ( more than one networks may
be present in your area, identify your network by SSID name which is configured in modem. Normally the CPE model name ( say WA1003A) is factory default SSID setting) and click on Properties.
Look for field Data Encryption and network ID, select WEP as Data Encryption and enter the network ID which you have entered in CPE configuration as Encryption Key.
