Just a suggestion
Did you make sure you typed the network key on the bit of paper in capitals (it won't work in lower case)

Hidden or just nothing there? you may need to set a key up or reset the key to somthing you can write down and will need to configure anything else already set up to work again with the new key.0

If it's currently set up to use WPA, keep it like that - it's a better standard of security.
