can't connect new HP laptop with Windows 10 to router N600

I just received a new HP laptop with Windows 10 and can't connect to the internet with my N600 router. It keeps saying "can't connect to this network." I have no problem connecting to the Guest network (which is open, not secured) and have no problems with my brand new Macbook or older HP laptop with Windows 7. I have installed the new firmware V1.0.1.4_1.0.52. I powered off the router and turned back on and still can't connect. I think it must be a setting. I have WEP security because of the Mac computer. Is that the problem? Any help would be much appreciated. TIA!

Tried to upgrade security protocol to WPA2-AES which is better? Also how about creating a home group if you have more devices on the network.
