Yup, same here. I just setup 2x WRT54G v2.2 and one Asus WL-500G connected via WDS. For encryption I used PSK+AES. The nas crap is installed. This is a self builded (no modifications) post-rc4 White Russian release from subversion with the revision 2813.
It really seems since the watchdog or the hotplug scripts are involved the WPA encryption is unusable! Btw. before I upgraded these three router to White Russian I had successfully running latest experimental from 2005.05.25 on it with WDS (PSK+AES) working.
In my situation the datatransfer pauses 2 seconds every minute and over the night the connection freezes completly. I have to power cycle the 3 units to get it working again.
I will test it now with WEP encryption and will report here.

Going back and using LAN cables and use OpenWrt only for the wired router or using OpenVPN to encrypt wireless traffic. I think this is currently the best alternative. Never thought I have to say this.
