Is the payload of the data frames WEP-encrypted?

Yes.

I.e., this may be a case where, although whatever capture mechanism
you're using (the utility from Axis, or a driver with Javier Achirica's
modifications?) can put the interface into "raw mode" so that you see
802.11 traffic rather than pretend-Ethernet traffic, you're still not
seeing "raw traffic" as in "what's actually being broadcast over the
airwaves", and it may not be possible to see that.


I am using the Axis utility and capturing the raw 802.11 frames on a
laptop, independent of the AP and the wireless client that are talking
WEP.   I can provide a cap file if that will help.
