For WEP it should be a string of hex digits (0 to 9 and A to F)  26
characters if I remember correctly.  Some routers may allow a normal
string of words to be used and will convert this to the hex string, in
that case you need to get the hex string from the router to put into
NM.

By the way WEP is not secure any more, someone with the right
knowledge can hack into your network.  You should change the router to
WPA.
