Unless Michael upload compatible hostap-modules, I don't think you will get
WPA on sl-5500. In the mean time stick with WEP.

As you are the second person who was bited by the incompatible modules
problem, I think worthwhile to attract developer's attention to the issue.
IMHO the intermediate fix would be to downgrade
hostap-modules-2.4.18-rmk7-pxa3-embedix to (0.3.9-r7) with explicit mention
that WPA is not supported.

If you ask me, I don't think that WPA is that much secure, just requires
more time and CPU on the hacker side. (Don't know on TKIP though).
