You used to be able to pass the username and password in the URL by using:
http://username:password@host/

However, this was an extremely bad idea.

Microsoft removed support for this from Internet Explorer 6 back in 2004:
Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-004 - Critical[^]
Internet Explorer does not support user names and passwords in Web site addresses (HTTP or HTTPS URLs)[^]

Firefox still supports it, but displays a warning message:
Network.http.phishy-userpass-length - MozillaZine Knowledge Base[^]

Chrome tried to deprecate the feature back in 2012, but it looks like they were forced to turn it back on:
123150 - Chrome 19 doesn't respect basic auth details embedded in the URL - chromium - Monorail[^]

Behaviour in other browsers will vary. You can test your browser with the following URL:
https://foo:bar@httpbin.org/basic-auth/foo/bar[^]


Also, your code isn't building the correct URL. Your need:
C#
string mystring = "http://" + username + ":" + password + "@" + myip + "/command.htm?key=";

// Or:
string mystring = string.Format("http://{0}:{1}@{2}/command.htm?key=", username, password, myip);

// Or: (C# 6)
string mystring = $"http://{username}:{password}@{myip}/command.htm?key=";

Alternatively, use the UriBuilder class[^]:
C#
UriBuilder builder = new UriBuilder();
builder.UserName = username;
builder.Password = password;
builder.Host = myip;
builder.Path = "/command.htm";
builder.Query = "key=";
string mystring = builder.ToString();

But, as I said, the result of opening that URL will depend on your default browser.
