Using WEP encryption on wifi.

I thought I did this right but it is not working.
1) Open config page for my Linksys router.
2) On the Wireless Security tab entered a passphrase and clicked Generate.
3) Copies the 4 keys that were created.
4) Saved the settings.
5) On my laptop, opened the properties window for the wireless network
(WinXP Pro).
6) On the Association Tab set Data Encryption to WEP.
7) Entered the 4 keys, each time setting the Key Index to the proper value
1-4.
Yet the connection does not work - when I do a Repair it chokes at the
Renewing IP Address step.
What did I miss?
TIA,
