I have a similar issue. At first I thought it couldn't negotiate the WEP encryption. But when I stood next to the router I could see that every attempt to connect caused the Homeportal unit to reset, just as if I had power cycled the unit. Network manager progresses to "28%" of connection tasks before timing out.

Unlike my Ubuntu installation, Kubuntu sees wireless networks... In fact, I was able to connect to at least two networks in my neighborhood; a netgear and a linksys.
