According to the IEEE, WEP-40 and WEP-104 "have been deprecated as

You should instead use WPA2-AES or, if that is not possible, WPA2-PSK.
Thanks for the suggestion, but my old router does not support either of these
encryption formats
Then either upgrade your router's firmware to Tomato or DD-WRT (if
they support your router) or bite the bullet and buy a new one.
You can get really good ones mail order for US$55-60.
Well OK, but this still does not solve the issue of why NetworkManager will not
Connect to the router :)
True enough, but there's a reason it's called Network Mangler...
