Huh.. Also, packets from 1) to 3) never reaches 3). As

The first thing I'd do is start by verifying that the packet actually went out over the air. Put one of the atheros stations into monitor mode, then tcpdump -ni wlanX -y IEEE802_11_RADIO. If you run wireshark on FreeBSD as root, you can select the 802.11 capture format and it'll do that for you. That lets you see exactly what's going on. However, it only can decrypt frames sent to itself - so either you have to be running WEP or OPEN. WPA /WPA2 won't let you see frames destined to other stations. I'd also add "options ATH_DEBUG", AH_DEBUG and ATH_DIAGAPI to the kernel, so you can do more detailed debugging. I'd also use athstats to see if your station is receiving the DHCP replies. The "Rx" counter should be going up each time the server sends the response.
