wpa_supplicant includes WEP support by default. Personally, I find using wpa_supplicant to be preferable, as you can keep *all* the details for all the networks you connect to in one spot, your rc.conf becomes a simple ifconfig_ath0="WPA DHCP", and you can "roam" around without mucking around with ifconfig commands.

In your /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, hex keys are written with 0x as the prefix. Otherwise it's considered a decimal number or a string.
