wlan problem after kernel upgrade

Hi,
   after kernel upgrade to 2.6.25 I have to reinstall ndiswrapper for my wireless interface...
it's all right , I reinstalled :

usr5421x : driver installed
        device (0BAF:011B) present (alternate driver: rndis_wlan)

but now, when I start system.... at network start (only wlan0) I have this error:

Jun  1 09:51:45 sacarde rndis_wlan 2-6:1.0: rndis media connect
Jun  1 09:51:46 sacarde dhcpcd[2643]: wlan0: dhcpcd 3.2.1 starting
Jun  1 09:51:46 sacarde rndis_wlan 2-6:1.0: rndis media disconnect
Jun  1 09:51:46 sacarde dhcpcd[2643]: wlan0: hardware address = 00:14:c1:1b:7f:43
Jun  1 09:51:46 sacarde dhcpcd[2643]: wlan0: broadcasting for a lease
Jun  1 09:52:16 sacarde dhcpcd[2643]: wlan0: trying to use old lease in `/var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-wlan0.info'

Jun  1 09:52:17 sacarde dhcpcd[2643]: wlan0: exiting

and I have dhcp timeout
and network is down......

but now.... whenI just run:

iwconfig wlan0 ESSID *********

wlan0 go automaticaly UP, using right dhcp 192.168.1.*  of lan

but with old kernel all was automaticly done....

in my rc.conf I have:

wlan0="dhcp"
wlan_wlan0="wlan0 essid *******"
WLAN_INTERFACES=(wlan0)
INTERFACES=(lo wlan0)

and load MODULES ndiswrapper

what happend ?

thankyou
