Howto set WEP in conf.d/wireless?

[ImNeat]

I'm trying to set up my arch laptops wireless card to work at my school. Wireless works fine at my place (doesnt use a key) but doesnt work at my school (has a key.)
I have my settings in /etc/conf.d/wireless, and i followed this guide from wiki.archlinux.org

This is my /etc/conf.d/wireless:
# Settings for wireless cards

#HOME WIRELESS
#wlan_eth1="eth1 essid HomEssid"

#APT WIRELESS
#wlan_eth1="eth1 essid AptEssid"

#SCHOOL WIRELESS
wlan_eth1="eth1 essid SchoolEssid"
wlan_eth1="eth1 essid SchoolEssid key School10digitWEP"
#wlan_eth1="eth1 essid SchoolEssid key s:(nothing)"

This is how it looks when I try to start the connection at school. The way it's set up, is I should first be able to get "limited connectivity," but still be able to access "https://connect.MySchool.edu" to register. After registering I should have full connectivity. The problem is, after enabling eth1 using 'dhcpcd eth1', I still cannot connect to register. The IT staff doesnt know where to start with linux.
Anyone have any ideas where I'm going wrong? Help would be greatly appreciated.

when you run dhcpcd eth1 you get connected without any errors?

can you ping your school.

So for instance I went to bc and I could ping www.bc.edu before the registration stuff.


if the dhcpcd is conncecting that this has nothing to do with your WEP key because it wouldn't connect at all with wrong key.

for some possible options with dhcpcd look at the man page. Sometimes you just need to screw around a little bit to get it to work.

Yea it never supplies me with any errors. I'll
dhcpcd -d eth1
next time to see what kind of output its giving.

Solved. Just had to change the format: 12:34:56:78:90.
