Try resetting the router to factory defaults-- on a linksys you hold down the reset button until the orange light goes out. on the dlink I think you hold the reset button in for 20 seconds then while holding in the button unplug the power-- still holding in the reset button FOR 10 seconds then apply power and release the reset button after 10 seconds.

What about setting your WEP on your Wireless Card on the affected Computer to the same Key?
Do you not have a Computer "wired" to the Router or one with a Lan/Ethernet card that could be? Then you could simply turn off WEP in your Router.

The network will not be seen when you click 'show networks' because you turned off broadcasting the SSID. Therefore, you have to explicity name the network that you want to connect to - assuming the WEP keys have been put in correctly, you should then be able to connect :)
