Try to use WEP 40/128-bit Hexadecimal in Security portion and put your correct key. If it is still persist, you may try to configure by issuing system-config-network command or by going to System > Administration > Network > New > Wireless Connection > Forward and choose your wireless adapter then follow the rest of instructions.
Good luck!

I am trying to connect to a WEP network. I left click on the
NetworkManger icon upper right, select 'connect to other wireless
network', it opens a dialog, I type in network name, select 128 bit
wep and enter the key, hit connect. log contents after that:

Is there some other service/daemon that should be running?
Here is a big blurb of relevant(?) info:
