Well, I turned WEP off on my AP, restarted my laptop and did:

ifconfig eth0 up
iwconfig essid WIFINAME
dhcpcd eth0

Successfully I can connect to the internet through my laptop now with Linux. I guess this means my WEP key configuration is wrong.

My AP currently has 4 128-bit WEP keys (eg):
1A1A1A1A1A1A1A1A1A1A1A1A1A
2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B
3C3C3C3C3C3C3C3C3C3C3C3C3C
4D4D4D4D4D4D4D4D4D4D4D4D4D

Now when you say:
iwconfig eth0 essid YOURSSID enc YOURCRYOTOHEX

Do I assume since for example I'm using Key 2 as Default that I need to enter this:
iwconfig eth0 essid WIFINAME enc 2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B2B

Or do I need to setup all four WEP Keys and set 2 as default?
