If all you want is simple WEP for the 2611, you should be able to add 
the following to your interface setup in /etc/network/interfaces.

wireless-key s:1234567890123 (or whatever 13 character ASCII key matches 
the other end.  If you use the hex format, remove the "s:")

This assumes a 128 bit key.
