 Replying to [comment:30 dwmw2]:
 > If you don't kill NetworkManager, the test is completely invalid.

 Not true, for two reasons:
 1 - NM is not overwritting the settings. The XO is associated for an hour
 now - still pinging.
 2 - Even if it did (overwrite), the test proves that the AP (at least
 some) _will_ accept the wep key. Accepting a wep key entered via command
 line has nothing to do with the fact that NM is or is not running.

 And no, you won't associate to the Apple even if you kill NetworkManager.

 It does not look as "simple" as in:
 > I'd say this is NetworkManager?'s fault, since when I disable it
 everything else works fine.
