Internet Questions - Netgear WEP?

So I was trying to connect my Nintendo DS to my internet... but it said the security access points were not supported. Or something along those lines. So I went on the Nintendo DS site and it said i have to change the security options for my router to WEP. It gave me this site to go to and it was about my Netgear router settings (DG834G). I went to wireless settings and under security options, a bubble was filled in which meant it was WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key). I clicked the WEP option and it a box came up asking me to generate a WEP key passphrase. I made one and it gave me 4 keys underneath. I went to get some paper and a pen to write them down, but I came back and my laptop was disconnected. The only computer that works with the internet is the one which wasn't using wireless, but instead connected by a cord. I switched the security options back to the WPA-PSK setting. But when I tried to reconnect to my laptop, it asked for a network key. I typed that in but it constantly says acquiring network address. No matter what I do it won't connect to the internet. How do I make it connect again? If you need any further details ask and I will answer.Internet Questions - Netgear WEP?
Try talking to tech support on the netgear website for help changing it to wep. I'm not sure about netgear but a lot of companies have an instant message chat with a tech set up.Internet Questions - Netgear WEP?
