Yes and it would be also nice if you could try connect to your router from command line. Something like: iwfconfig essid eth0 your_ap_essid udhcpc eth0 and you can also try with dhclient: iwfconfig essid eth0 your_ap_essid dhclient eth0 Regards Radek ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

According to > the RFC a DHCP-request needs to be padded up to 300 chars. If my reading of the QtMoko source is correct, QtMoko simply uses 'udhcpc' to do client-side DHCP. So what you've described may be a known bug with the Debian squeeze version of udhcpc (which is part of busybox). Therefore, you might like to: - see if you can reproduce the same problem with Debian squeeze udhcpc, running independently of QtMoko - investigate if that problem has since been fixed in busybox upstream - build and install a modified busybox package that adds that udhcpc fix.
