Not exactly. wlancfg-DEFAULT is the fallback config file. For each ESSID
you define in wlan.conf, you should make a wlancfg-ESSID file (i.e. for
the "home" ESSID, I should make a wlancfg-home file) that contains any
site-specific settings (WEP keys, etc). 

Complete details are in the wlan.conf file, as well as
/usr/share/doc/kernel-wlan-ng-0.2.0/doc/config.linux-wlan-ng
