The same place you select 'WPA 1/2 Pre-shared Key' only I have to select
WEP (Hex[0-9/A-F]) from the list tht comes up via the down arrow right
above the Key box.  Then I put in my key which happens to be all numbers.
I guess it makes a difference what is in the router and yours probably
lot different set up than mine.
