I am trying to connect through my Nokia N9 as a wireless hotspot with an ad-hoc connection and WEP.

The key is not working, but can connect if I set it as open without a key.

This works in networkmanger with Mint, but cannot get my ad-hoc WEP connection recognised with Slacko 5.3.1

Thanks

Installing Frisbee and connecting seemed to work for me with a HEX key input.

Strange, as I had tried the pns-tool with a HEX key input as well but couldn't acquire an address.
