I also, but now with 2.6.20-r6 (2.6.19-r5 works also fine for me)

I use the same versions.

This is my configuration in net.

modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_eth1="-D wext"
wpa_timeout_eth1=60
config_eth1=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_eth1="-t 5"


I don't know what "!plug" does.

my /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ap_scan=1
network={
        ssid="xxxxxxxxx"
        psk="xxxxxxxx"
        priority=5
}



I use wpa-psk to make my wlan secure.

I hope I this can help you.
