I tried commenting out the essid and key in /etc/network/interfaces, then /etc/init.d/networking restart, then attempted again to connect using network manager (the KDE one, not the gnome one, by the way), with the same end result ... network manager asked for key, I typed it in, set type to hexadecimal, then pressed OK ... hang at 28% "Activation stage: Configuring device.", with many "Setting SW wep key" in /var/log/messages. I tried making it a "static connection", too - same result of no connection and repeated "Setting SW wep key" messages in log.
