I was asking about it earlier here and everyone told me
that it is actually worse to use "authmode shared"
(the WEP-keys seem to be easier to crack).

You can read about WEP authentication here:

I have looked in the sources in CURRENT and the
authentication protocol is not implemented. Someone
told me about a patch which makes it available,
but I lost interest after reading the link above.
