If is secure than you need to follow aditional steps..

And if you just want to do it from xterm...

ifconfig eth1 up (bring up specified interface)

iwconfig eth1 mode managed key [WEP key] (128 bit WEP use 26 hex characters, 64 bit WEP uses 10)

iwconfig essid "[ESSID]" (Specify ESSID for the WLAN)

or iwlist scan to scan for AP.
