problem on the keycode

I can't enter any keys to the box of keycode for WEP, including copy-paste
the codes. Its box is like Read Only.
Does anybody know how to fix it?

Thanks,

Bing

When I've encountered this in the past, the problem was caused by the
"The key is provided for me automatically" checkbox being selected:

If you are using Windows XP with SP2

Click "Start," click "Control Panel," click "Network Connections."
Right-click the "Wireless Network Connection," and then click
"Properties."
On the "Wireless Networks" tab, under "Preferred networks," click the
wireless network connection for which you want to configure 802.1X
authentication, and then click "Properties."
On the "Association" tab, clear the check box named "The key is provided
for me automatically"

This should activate the "WEP" text field and allow you to enter the
Key.
