Its roots lie somewhere between network-manager and gnome-keyring. When I remove WEP NM connects just fine. When I activate WEP it waits for some time, than reports that network is connected, while in fact it isn't. It also asks a keyring password every time it connects. I have to get to the CLI and use iwconfig to force set WEP password and than everything works. Please fix it, this bug is already several years old.
