I was having Wifi trouble under every distro until I remembered that I disabled 
802.11G on my AP.  I'm pretty anal about how tightly configured my AP is, which 
can shoot you in the foot if you forget all the fancy stuff you setup months 
ago.   Looks like the FreeRunner radio only supports G.  After that I had no 
problem connecting with WPA2.

Hope this helps.
