 be closed.

 Yes and no. For one the wpa_supplicant does support connecting to a WEP
 network, so yes. But on the other hand the request doesn't seem to go
 through to it right now, probably due to some wrong/incomplete net_server
 changes I did. So right now if you try to select a WEP network, nothing
 happens at all. Using {{{ifconfig /dev/net/... join x}}} you can actually
 get a wpa_supplicant dialog and then use the network name field to
 actually join your desired network. I still need to investigate that one.
