A broadband connection on a network is established by using a router and a broadband Internet service provider. To secure the broadband network, a network key or password is configured to stop unauthorized users from connecting to the network. Although you can find the broadband network password by accessing the network's router, you can also use the "Wireless Properties" utility in a Windows computer connected to the network.
