I have a home Wi-Fi network.
Previously it was an open network, without any password.
Recently I renamed my network and set a WEP password there.
Now on my Laptop I see the renamed network but can't enter the password there.
The only option I see there is connect.
When tying to connect it fails, of cause.
What and how should I do?

Click your wi-fi tray icon.
Right click your network > Properties
Click the security tab at the top
Type in your password:

Another way would be to:
Click your wi-fi tray icon
Click 'Open Network And Sharing Center'
Click 'Manage Wireless Networks' on the left
Select your network, click remove at the top (then reconnect normally...):

As people have said in the comments, it makes no sense to not use WPA2 (or even WPA) according to me. It doesn't take any more time to set it up than WEP as you use, but the rest is up to you...
