While attempting to connect my Laptop to my wireless network (Bell Sympatico), I got the error message "The Network passowrd has to be 40bits or 104bits depending on your network configuration. This can be entered as 5 or 13 acsii characters or 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters". My network key is 26 characters, and the 2 other computers in my house connect the my wireless network using the same key. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Is there anyway I can change my passphrase back?

And I didn't enter the wrong one, it works for both my other computers, its the one given to me from bell.

Are you sure that you have the correct encryption type selected. I'm assuming that you are using WEP?
