I bought a WiFi Nook last week and registered it and purchased my first book in the B&N store. No problems yet. I have been trying to connect to our home wireless network, which is run by an old Airport base station that is WEP protected. The Nook recognized the network as having an excellent signal. But it won't accept my password, which is a 5 character ASCII password. I know the password is correct. In my house an iMac, a MacBook Pro, a MacBook, and an old iBook all connect to the internet via the Airport base station.

I am getting pretty frustrated. Didn't see anything on the Boards that I thought would work. Advice please.
