Auto-disconnecing cnetworkmanager

I've been using networkmanager with nm-applet without issue for... well, three days. However, I can't get cnetworkmanager to work. It does everything it is supposed to do, except that when I try:

cnetworkmanager -C Network --wep-pass=wpass

(Network name starts with uppercase)

It spouts a not-very helpful:

Entering mainloop
(20:34:32) State: CONNECTING
(20:34:32) State: DISCONNECTED
(20:34:36) State: CONNECTING
(20:34:36) State: DISCONNECTED

And nothing more. trying with -m

Which I don't even begin to understand. There are not a lot of options that I could have set wrong, and nm-applet works perfectly, so I'm wondering: what kind of voodoo ritual should I perform on cnetworkmanager?

[wicd did not work at all, by the way]

Thanks.

ETA: --wep-hex works. Just need to change the key to hex.
