I just purchased and adruino uno rev3 and an arduino wifi shield.  I installed the code for "scan for netowrks" and it found my network.  So then I uploaded the "connect with WEP" and all I get is attempting to connect to wep network. 

Below is what I uploaded to my arduino.  Please let me know if I left anything out.

THANKS

 This example connects to a WEP-encrypted Wifi network.
 Then it prints the  MAC address of the Wifi shield,
 the IP address obtained, and other network details.
 
 If you use 40-bit WEP, you need a key that is 10 characters long,
 and the characters must be hexadecimal (0-9 or A-F).
 e.g.  for 40-bit, ABBADEAF01 will work, but ABBADEAF won't work
 (too short) and ABBAISDEAF won't work (I and S are not
 hexadecimal characters).
 
 For 128-bit, you need a string that is 26 characters long.
 D0D0DEADF00DABBADEAFBEADED will work because it's 26 characters,
 all in the 0-9, A-F range.
