Greetings:

I have the same experience in Ubuntu 10.04 and Mint in that they reject WEP passwords from my Tiger eMac yet if I omit using any password Mint and Ubuntu will happily allow me to connect via an unsecured wifi connection, which is NOT the safe way to go! Is anyone else sharing this experience?

I don't immediately have an answer to this. Let's try to first find the exact device. Give me the output of:

Code:
lspci


copy and paste the output here please

I don't see your wireless card here...
Can you give me the output of:
Code:
lsmod

and
Code:
lsusb

and
Code:
dmesg

I see that your airport is recognised and that the device is eth1. It tries to connect to an AP (access point) but can't. In the end it gives up. I think that your airport card is working properly. The only problem I foresee is the WEP encryption of your AP. It should be 104-bit. I would change the WEP protocol on the router to 104 bit. I think that there lies the problem. If you have an Apple router, I would set it up that it is compatible with non-Apple hardware. It has to do with the amount of characters of the password. I am not sure how many you need. Probably 5 characters? There is a setting somewhere in the airport administration tool. WPA is too new for this wireless ethernet card. So you have to work with WEP.

13 characters for 104 bits.

On my eMac's Sharing panel it states 128-bit encryption, not 104-bit. All Macs state that I think. No 104 anywhere. I many times did both the 13 and 5 password thing, and in Mint/Ubuntu under each menu of WEP like ACSII, HEX, Passphase and all the others but no go. I don't know where to find sites that might've logged similar issues. I'm wondering whether Ubuntu/Mint are just mis-de-crypting incoming passwords from older Airports(?). Is Ubuntu/Mint anticipating WPA instead of WEP maybe?

the airport driver should work normally. 104 bits is the same as 128 with a small difference. So a 128 bit password will do. You have to try the hexadecimal output of your password. Maybe that works. You can find websites on the net which create the hexadecimal code.
It's a little magic to me but you can try here

try both keys it makes. With custom key generator (take 13 character pass) it will give a different outcome than the random key...
