wepkey key|index:key
Set the selected WEP key. If an index is not given, key 1 is
set. A WEP key will be either 5 or 13 characters (40 or 104
bits) depending of the local network and the capabilities of the
adaptor. It may be specified either as a plain string or as a
string of hexadecimal digits preceded by `0x'. For maximum
portability, hex keys are recommended; the mapping of text keys
to WEP encryption is usually driver-specific. ** In
particular, the
Windows drivers do this mapping differently to FreeBSD. **
