WPA-PSK key help

I set up a wireless network using a D-link router about 2 years ago. I tried setting up my PlayStation 3 using that same network but it will not connect. I'm not sure if the WPA key I am using is wrong or if there's some other issue. Is there any way that I can check the WPA key that I am using to see if it's right? And if it isn't right and I can't remember the password, is the only solution to reset the router and have to re-establish the network?

Any help is MUCH appreciated!! :)

Yes. It's a good idea in any event, since the passphrase should be changed regularly. I change all my passphrases and passwords at the same time I change my smoke detector batteries, each spring and fall when daylight savings changes.

Stupid question... how do you change your passphrase? Do you reset your router each time?

On 2008-01-18, Amandle intrigued me by typing:

Typically, you would login to your wireless router's or standalone access point's web menu and enter a new passphrase and then save. Afterwards, you change the passphrase of your wireless clients (laptops, PDA, WiFi phones, etc) that is used to connect to your wireless network to match the new passphrase you entered in the wireless router/AP.
