Answer 1

First what make and model is your wireless router and what operating system are you using?

To enable Security on your wireless router you will need to enable WPA encryption and create a pass-phrase, you will then need to configure your windows to use the same pass-phrase so that it can connect securely to the wireless router

Answer 2

I'm not sure if I understand your question. If you asking about a security password for a network it should allowed you make it during the setting up a network process. (I assume you've got a disk with guide - set up a network step by step). If not try to go to control panel, choose network and sharing centre and then set up a password in network settings.

Hope it will help
