Finally managed to connect to the Web using Ubuntu and my home wireless network. The default Gnome network admin tool didn’t do the job so I had to manually edit the /etc/network/interfaces file to read:
auto wlan0 iface wlan0 inet dhcp netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.2.1 wireless-essid cloudsoup wireless-key ********** wireless-channel 11 wireless_mode Managed
where ********** is my WEP key, of course. The thing that really swung it was that wireless_mode Managed line.
Took a long time.
