Trying the 8.04 live CD, it is still the case that the network does not work
after
configuring the WEP key using network-admin, even though many details of
the user interface and program behavior have changed since I originally
reported this as bug 67152. I am still using the same hardware.
Network-admin no longer has a cancel button, and Network-manager now
writes the wep key to the /etc/network/interfaces right away -- so this
behavior of wep key not making it to /etc/network/interfaces no longer
persists (As-of Gutsy Beta with latest updates).

I'm running a wifi dongle, with the zd1201 driver on Feisty. The device works,
and the WEP wireless-key in my etc/network/interfaces used to work on Dapper.
Now it seems that the network-manager can't read the key.
Using a GUI, I can't get a dhcp lease. But if I supply the WEP key using

Andreas, do you use cancel?
