Above is a sketch of what i want to achieve

I already have an Access Point (Ap on the sketch). This one is  configured like this:
- ssid: shoot
- bssid: A2:34:56:FF:23:23
- auth: wpa-psk tkip
- key: blabla

The OpenWrt is a Fonera running kamikaze 7.09:

/etc/config/network

config interface loopback
        option ifname   lo
        option proto    static
        option ipaddr   127.0.0.1
        option netmask  255.0.0.0

config interface lan
        option ifname   eth0
        option type     bridge
        option proto    static
        option ipaddr   192.168.0.253
        option netmask  255.255.255.0

/etc/config/wireless

config wifi-device  wifi0
        option type     atheros
        option mode     11bg
        option diversity 0
        option txantenna 1
        option rxantenna 1
        option disabled 0

config wifi-iface
        option device   wifi0
        option network  lan
        option mode     sta
        option ssid     shoot
        option bssid    A2:34:56:FF:23:23
        option bgscan   0
        option encryption psk
        option key      "blabla"

(I'm not really sure what bssid does, should it be set to the MAC Ap address I connect to ?, can't ssid be sufficient by itself ?)

First problem: WPA connection from OpenWrt to Ap goes down every second:

WPA: Key negotiation completed with A2:34:56:FF:23:23 [PTK=TKIP GTK=TKIP]

Am i doing this right ? i feel kinda lost

If I write a wrong WPA key my WPA connection to Ap goes down every second, perhaps you have the same problem.
Did you check the WPA key?
Did you installed wpa-supplicant.
