I installed Genmac 2.0 and XWLan 3.0 on my Thinkpad T 42 (Atheros chip
set), and it works fine.

However, when I set my router for WPA-2 encryption, and set up a XWLAN
profile to match, the access point is found, but the connection never gets
established.

The router has two choices:

PSK vs EAP, and I chose PSK

TKIP vs EAS, and I chose TKIP

I don't know if there is something more I can do to make the encryption
work (it does work fine if not encrypted).

Thanks,
Sandy
I use AES myself but have tested both and TKIP did also work.  Have you tried wpa-supplicant.exe?  Also, how long is your PSK?  I don't know if it affects the Atheros but with my Intel 2200BG I can't exceed 43 characters using xwlan whereas wpa-supplicant allows the full 63.
