Wireless router probs.

ok, got home today, and tried to log on to my house's wireless connection, which it should do automatically, but now, all of a sudden, my roueter tells me that it needs a Network key (WEP or WPA). Wtf is going on? tried the setup CD, tried a button on the router. it is a Linksys Wireless G router btw.

there are 2 likely possibilities,
1.) you aren't connecting to your network.
2.) you left it with the defaults, and someone else came along and set it up differently.

I'm going with number 1. if you are using windows you can double click the wirless networking icon and see what networks you are connected to and try to reconnect.
