Hi,
I'm trying to connect with this accesspoint:
Cell 03 - Address: 00:14:C1:30:FE:ED

Of course i tried:
[root@myhost shnela]# iwconfig wlan0 essid Masters key s:mastuning2000
[root@myhost shnela]# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"Masters"

eth0 no wireless extensions.
But I didn't get ip address:
[root@myhost shnela]# dhcpcd wlan0
dhcpcd[1040]: version 5.2.12 starting
dhcpcd[1040]: wlan0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd[1040]: timed out
or
[root@myhost shnela]# dhcpcd wlan0
dhcpcd[1092]: version 5.2.12 starting
dhcpcd[1092]: wlan0: rebinding lease of 192.168.4.63
dhcpcd[1092]: wlan0: broadcasting for a lease
dhcpcd[1092]: timed out
I tried also netcfg with profle "stancja":
CONNECTION='wireless'
DESCRIPTION='A simple WEP encrypted wireless connection'
INTERFACE='wlan0'
SECURITY='wep'
ESSID='Masters'
KEY='s:mastuning2000'
IP='dhcp'
# Uncomment this if your ssid is hidden
#HIDDEN=yes
But when I use it, it returns:
[root@myhost network.d]# netcfg stancja
:: stancja up [BUSY]
> WPA Authentication/Association Failed
I don't know what WPA Autenthication do here...

You are a bit ahead of yourself trying to run DHCP. You are not associated with the router yet. Take a look at the frequencies -- the router is at 2.462 GHz, your card is on 2.412 GHz. Also, your card is in ad-hoc mode.
Here is my connection:
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:"Woodlyn"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462 GHz Access Point: C4:3D:C7:5D:EB:8D
Bit Rate=24 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=57/70 Signal level=-53 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:398 Invalid misc:21891 Missed beacon:0
Note the access point MAC. When you are connected, yours will say 00:14:C1:30:FE:ED. The mode will say "managed"

Oh.. I'm very sorry. I confused my "iwconfig" output...
I've similar problem with this particular ap with debian too ( I can connect onnly with wicd).
I changed frequency and tried change ap addr:
[root@myhost shnela]# iwconfig wlan0 ap 00:14:C1:30:FE:ED
[root@myhost shnela]# iwconfig wlan0 freq 2.462G
[root@myhost shnela]# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.

Is it your router? Can you turn of WEP and associate?
What is your wireless chipset?

Unfortunately I can't change anything on router,
My chipset:
shnela@shl:~$ lspci | grep Network
09:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1030 (rev 34)
As i said, I can connect only using wicd ( on Debian) or on Windows.

In your last try posted here #3 you don't activate the link, try
ip link set wlan0 up
before doing the first iwconfig command.
Offline
Have you tried inputing the the WEP key as a hex string rather than using the s: prefix?

Both doesn't work. I also tried change channel, but still can't associate with my ap.

In your rc.conf you have configured "wlan0" as interface. That is wrong there; the section is only for wired interfaces. Take it out there. You don't need to specify it anywhere for now.
Then please try again after rebooting according to the manual connection method from the wiki and post output again where it fails.

I have a brand new laptop (Lenovo u400) that has the same wireless card; I've been having the same problem, though sometimes it does let me connect. I'll try taking the line out of rc.conf, though I recall the Beginner's Wiki saying it should be there... I may be wrong and went through it too quickly.
If I find anything more, I'll post it of course.

Have you tried doing it manually with wpa_supplicant? I always find that works the best for me.
When I win the lottery, the first thing I will do, before I buy a new car or a house, would be to buy a goddamn Cisco XR 12000 router and enough T3 lines to wire a country.
