I solved at least the no lease problem hacking a bit /etc/udev/scripts/network.sh, basically when eth0 is added it launches wpa_supplicant with -W (wait for wpa_cli) instead of ifup, after launches wpa_cli -a /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_cli.sh, the last is a script called when some event happens (CONNECT/DISCONNECT), on CONNECT it launches udhcpc, and as eth0 is already associated and authenticated I finally get a lease. I think this may be obtained using wpa-roam too in a more elegant way, but it failed and I'm a bit lazy to read an incomplete file set. An issue is that power cycling the AP resulted in kernel reporting ar6000 disconnected/connected but wpa_cli was not notified, after that the freerunner continued to stay connected but I do not know if moving to another configured network will notify a new association and a new IP or I have to disable/reenable wifi. This works starting/stopping wifi from shr-settings too without the need of launch mofi. I toggled wifi several times and it worked on a wpa-psk network without problems, so I *suppose* that udhcpc when launched with the eth0 not associated creates problems. Tomorrow I'll try with the wpa2-enterprise network and report.
