Remove the check from the Network Authentication (Shared mode) and The key is provided for me automatically fields.

In the "Network key" field, enter the exact Key (all 10 or 26 digits, depend- ing on the level of encryption) generated by the Router.

Verify that the “Key format” field displays “Hexadecimal digits” and that the “Key length” field displays either “40 bits (10 digits)” or “104 bits (26 digits)”. If this is not displayed, you have entered the key incorrectly.
