As has already been pointed out, you need to log on to your router's web
interface in order to retrieve the WEP key. Check the manual for your router for
how that's done.

On a side note, if the wireless adapter on your new computer supports WPA, or
better yet WPA2, you might consider using that intead of WEP. It's more secure.

Good luck
