In the router there should be an option to generate a WEP key.

Usually you put in a pass phrase and the router will then give you a choice of keys (these are the hexidecimal keys).

Simply choose one of these, tell the router which to use, tell your wireless card which one you're using, and then tell it which one of the keys this relates to on your router (the keys are normally numbered - if you pick key 1 from the routers choices you need to tell your wireless connection on the PC that you are using key index #1).
