And what I can't do:

I ran wireshark on a computer on the LAN, on the AP (here I used tcpdump
on all interfaces because I don't have the possibility to have X) and on
a stations. I would say that's a problem with ARP packets.
Here's a similar bug -- the debugging I did there you should do here.

I said something wrong: from any stations, I can't ssh the AP (it works
only if from the station pings the AP during the ssh). I made a few
other observations:
I start a ping from a LAN computer to a futur associated station (all IP
are fix). When the station finished the association, the ping works for
20 sec (it seems to correspond to the time an entry stays in the ARP
table) and then Destination Host Unreachable.
As soon as I start a ping from the station to the LAN computer, the LAN
computer's ping receive the responses, but when I stop the ping from the
station, the LAN computer's ping don't receive the respond any more even
if I stop it before 20sec are elapsed... I think it's more than just a
problem with the ARP table.
I looked at the patch given in the bug you gave me, the ralink driver
seems do the things correctly.
