Just enter a passphrase. The software in the router should have a button that says 'generate keys'. The keys will then be generated from your pass phrase. Then, on each wireless client, enter the SAME EXACT passphrase and generate keys there. Make sure that you're using the same key on all clients and the router. (Key 1 is just fine). That's it. You now will have WEP enabled.

Here's a quick tut I wrote about my Netgear WAP:

Good luck!
