Make sure that you have not built/modprobed the ath5k kernel module which may 
clash with madwifi-ng.

Also, if your router is anything like mine you will need to use the WPA key 
that can be found on a sticker at the bottom of the router - or set up a new 
key altogether.

BTW, asking the obvious:  have you tried associating and connecting to the 
Internet without any encryption?
