Since you said you use a WEP key:

	iwconfig wlan0 essid HOME key s:string
or
	iwconfig wlan0 essid HOME key hex-characters

will probably do what you want.  Look at the man page for iwconfig.

If you use WPA, WPA-2 or stronger passphrases, look at the man pages
for wpa_supplicant and wpa_supplicant.conf.

We prefer bottom-posting on this list, if you please.
