WEP is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard, just ask Stephen it took his neighbours just a few minutes to hack his WEP security. You must use WPA. See page 37 of the manual. Enter your random 63 character alphanumeric string in the box labelled "PSK String" after selecting the appropriate radio button.

Save the string to your hard disk if you must, but you're going to have to enter that long string, without errors, on any machine you want to access the wireless network. If you're not using wireless, then disable wireless access and don't bother entering a string.

Oh, and get yourself a USB drive, they are dirt cheap and extremely useful.
