I was getting the same message when I setup my 2nd SB3 (my first
wireless SB) a couple of evenings ago. I also use WEP. (I'd rather use
WPA, but I have a device on my network that uses a LinkSys wga54g
wireless game adapter that I had lying around; it doesn't support WPA,
just WEP.)

I fixed the problem after reading the following on the troubleshooting
FAQ
(http://faq.slimdevices.com/index.php?sid=16862&lang=en&action=artikel&cat=2&id=14&artlang=en)

My router (LinkSys WRT54G) has you enter a "passphrase" from which it
generates four different WEP keys. I had it set to use the third one in
the list, and had my other wireless devices set up with the same hex
string.

When I reconfigured the router to use the first hex string in the list,
updated the configuration of my other devices likewise, and put that hex
string into the SB3, all was well.

Really, it was like that when I got here.
