Blackberry/Wifi

Having just got a Blackberry for Xmas, I'm trying to get it to connect to my WiFi (which works fine with my laptop and desktop).

When I search for networks, mine shows up along with the usual suspects from the neighbours. Mine is labelled WPA-Personal while next doors is labelled WEP.

If I try to connect to mine it it says 'Security Type: Pre-Shared Key (PSK)' and prompts me for a Pre-Shared Key. Entering my WEP, which is the only thing I'm aware of and what I've used before, doesn't work.

However, if I try to connect to my neighbours it comes up with 'Security Type: WEP' and prompts for a WEP key - what I would expect mine to do.

This sounds like my wireless is asking for a something other than the WEP - does anyone know what that might be, and how can I find it?
