Seems like the best option is as follows:
-----------------------------------------
svn import WiFiConfig <url>/WiFiConfig/trunk --depth files -m "msg"
svn co <url>WiFiConfig/trunk --force WiFiConfig

I.e. First import the directory and then immediately check out the
same with --force

It still takes some time because I think svn needs to download the
files into the cache in the .svn directory.
I have a rather slow connection to the server from where I am...

Unless I misread your original post, the very first option in that link looks like a better fit. To rephrase it somewhat for your case:

1)  Create a repository or a directory in the repository
2)  Create your local files
3) Check out the empty repository path to your workspace - this won't overwrite any of your files
4)  svn add [files]
5)  svn ci
6)  Continue working as usual

This avoids a round trip to the server to push the current files, then pull them back down to create the formal SVN working copy with things already in it - instead you "check out" an empty directory which should be quite fast.
