This problem is quite common – a lot of people have trouble connecting DSLinux to their AP while everything else works fine. Alas, no one has analysed the problem deeply yet, since none of the people reporting the problem were able to do so themselves and were unable to provide enough information needed for someone else to do so. A packet capture of the DS trying to associate would help. Before starting to capture packets, try without WEP, and open vs. shared authentication. Also, try to set your AP to 2Mbit/s speed. The DS can only do 2Mbit/s, not more. Your AP may fail to detect this and talk to the DS at a higher speed than the DS can listen. See also this thread on the forums.
