Set up WPA2 network:

nano /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

Make it look like this:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1

network={
      scan_ssid=0
      ssid="your_essid"
      proto=WPA2
      key_mgmt=WPA-PSK WPA-EAP
      pairwise=CCMP TKIP
      group=CCMP TKIP
      psk=your_64_hex_characters_long_key
}

To get your psk key, run:

wpa_passphrase ssid 'passphrase'

Then, edit the /etc/rc.d/rc.inet1.conf as follows:

IFNAME[1]="ath0"
IPADDR[1]=""
NETMASK[1]=""
USE_DHCP[1]="yes"
DHCP_HOSTNAME[1]="ssid"
WLAN_WPA[1]="wpa_supplicant"
WLAN_WPADRIVER[1]="wext"
