 On a XO-4 C1 with Q7B11 and an 8787 wireless card, I tried to connect to a
 WEP AP by entering the "essid" followed by the "wep" key to run "ntp-set-
 clock", but was unable to get past the initial association (which was
 open, and therefore did not depend on the key).

 All DHCP requests timed out after this point.

 With WEP this is sometimes a sign that an incorrect key was used.  However
 repeated tries did not solve the problem, and a XO-4 B1 with an 8686 card
 was able to properly connect to the AP.
