What do I do? My acer netbook doesn't want to accept the internet connection

password? The password is correct. It is 6 characters but the netbook (running on Linux) says it should be 8 or more characters.
I get this message:
you have selected encryption type "WPA & WPA2 Personal" , and length of the security key or passphrase of this type should be between 8 and 64.

but when I chose WEP it doesn't accept the passphrase; or None, it is not giving me a space to type in a passphrase.
It was setup by my landlord and he is not in town for another few days. I can't change the password without his permission. Can it not be done with just the 6 character one?
