Help my 360 get back on Live

So my Xbox Live connection has been kind of crappy lately, and I looked at my router and realized since I'd last reset it I never put any encryption on it. "Well if people are able to leech my bandwidth that could explain the shit connection" I say to myself, and turn on WEP encryption. I print off the code and go over to my 360 and put the code in for my network and... my 360 does not connect to Live.
It does not detect my network when running the "Test Live Connection". Which is odd. It should at least give me an option saying "it's encrypted" or whatever, right? But no, now apparently there are NO networks it can find - not mine, and not the six other connections I could choose from when detecting networks when reconfiguring my 360's online settings.
I turned the encryption off again so it was an unsecured network once more, but it still does not connect my network when doing the "Text Live Connection". And there is no option to "select network" like there has been before. There is only "Automatic" or "Manual" for the address detection, which is bullshit because I KNOW there was an option to select networks before.
Someone please tell me they know what's going on because Live's support website has nothing on this I haven't tried already and sitting on the phone for five hours with an Indian tech supporter is not my idea of a good time.

@gamefacts - Totally and utterly true gaming facts on the regular!
I have done that several times.
EDIT: I re-read, you said adapter, not router. I did that, and it has worked now. Thanks.
