15" MBP 2.66ghz Not Connecting to Some Wireless Hotspots

I recently picked up one of the newer MBPs and have been having a problem connecting to the wireless network at my favorite coffee shop. The MBP works fine on my personal wireless network and several others so I know it isn't a problem with my notebook. The odd thing is that people with PCs can connect to the network with no problems. When I try, it tells me that the connection failed. I can see the SSID in Airport but it just won't let me connect. I did some further snooping in the advanced setting in Airport and it is telling me that the wireless network I am trying to get on has a WEP key I need to enter but I am not sure it does seeing that PC users get on the network without having to enter in any key at all and I know I never had to enter a WEP key when I was using my old Sony Vaio.



Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am running 10.5.6 btw.



Thanks!
