You meant WPA? (a WAP access would be very slow :-) )

The installer only allows WEP-based encryption method, it is documented 
here:

***
http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/ch02s01.html.en#network-cards

"(...) Support for encrypted wireless during installation is currently 
limited to WEP. If your access point uses stronger encryption, it cannot 
be used during the installation process."

You can proceed with the suggested alternatives.
