one thing I forget about WEP is putting the "0x" before the hex string. did you do that for wep connection?
When I tried that I got an error that said: Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) : invalid argument "0x[my key was here]".
I also tried creating a keys-wlan0 file under: /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices
The only thing in the file was: KEY=0x[my key here]
That didn't seem to work either. Can anyone elaborate on the keys-wlan0 file? I'll do some googling.
BTW, iwconfig and the ifup scripts know the key value is in hex, so it needs to be exact, not with the preceding "0x" when it is entered.
Thanks, James
