If you're talking about Dynamic WEP, that's what wpa_supplicant is for,
it will handle setting the ciphers through SIOCSIWENCODEEXT.
If you're talking about static WEP, then the ciphers are determined by
the WEP keys that have been set with iwconfig, and you determine
WEP40/WEP104 based on the length of the current WEP TX index.
You should *not* be trying to do Dynamic WEP via iwconfig (which it
seems is what you're doing below?)
