For WEP, I'm currently connecting with :

ifconfig eth0 up
iwconfig eth0 essid any
iwconfig eth0 key 'mykey'
iwconfig eth0 essid 'myssid'
ifup eth0

Something strange, I am unable to set the key (iwconfig key) if the
essid is not "any".

I began patching wifi-radar (a wifi python/gtk app) for the FR, if I've
got enough time, I'll try to release it.
