For secure connection seems to be fine to have wpa2, aes and 26+
for pass.

I added the Kobo's MAC do the list and I couldn't connect. I turned off MAC Filtering and I still couldn't connect. So, I synced up and updated and i couldn't connect. After reading another thread here, I reset the unit and I still couldn't connect.
I'd reboot the router first, for occasion. Native linksys firmware
could be strange from time to time.

I disabled wireless security and connected fine. Then I enabled WPA-AES with an 8 character password and I connected fine
Good is that you could connect someway. Maybe you should avoid
non ascii characters?

then I changed to WPA-TKIP with 8 characters and connected fine. hmmm... So I upped my passwrod to 26 characters and I can't connect again.
One thing that you did not mention was if you made ssid hidden. I recall
one thread with extra step to fail first and then be asked if you wanted to
make configuration yourself.

My first bet is that you included characters you should not. Try out with
26 lower case and numbers only. If it works, here you are. If not, kobo guys
would shed a little more light to the scene. I simply cannot believe the pass
to be limited to 8 characters.
