I got two wired computers connected to the box, and I can't ocnnect to the wireless part of the box through the internet to configure the wifi settings, I don'tk now what to do. I need the SSID and password but I can't get to it since I can't access the box's wireless settings since the only computers I have to do that with are hard wired.

OK
To further diagnose and assist, I think we need a full description of what you have and what you are trying to do.

Wired/Wireless
router-modem make and model
What is currently connected
What you are trying to connect with
Can the 2 PCs connected get to the router admin screen?
....all that kind of stuff

How do I do that?
 


PC -> ethernet cable -> router.
Log in with the username/password.
See what the wireless settings are.
 


OK.
So log in to the router admin screen.
See what the wifi SSID and password is.
Input that into your wireless device.
 
Nothing, Google chrome goes "Oops did you mean....". There are two pc's hard wired into the box, it's currently being used as a modem, id on't know how to somehow...activate the wireless part of it so i can access the settings, all i know is that I'm able to do that from a wifi pc, but i don't have one
