The guy is on vacation, A teacher needs to connect to the network to
teach a lesson. Nothing illegal or bad. Otherwise I would not ask
this question. I do not want to use unauthorized network without
permission. I can ask permission from Administration, but the guy
that knows the key is not here.
Then have someone with phisical access change or disable the password.
And prepare an ass whipping for the admin that setup a password and
didn't ensure someone else knew it before leaving for vacation.
If there is no way to do it, then I rest my case! The person can
die and then the key is lost to the network. There has to be a way
to do it.
The simplest way is to reset it via the admin interface of the
wireless device. Anyone with legitimate access would do it that way.
WEP can be easily cracked with various tools. WPA is a bit more
secure AIUI.
The bottom line is that the way to find the password is to look in the
admin interface for the wireless device.
