Have you tried that ifconfig_atu0 line like this:

ifconfig_atu0="ssid bsdnetwork nwkey 0xdeadbeef12"

I recently setup one of my adapters with dhcp, which I'd never done
before, and I noticed that the fewer options I used it decided to
connect. If it doesn't work, it might be a bug I suppose.

Does wiconfig show you anything?

wiconfig atu0 -D

And various other options. That's how I know it's working on mine, I
can see my access point.
