Plenty of routers out there that can be configured to ignore the client
MAC and allocate an IP based on Client ID. I can't be the only person
who does this. Two dhcp clients send the same Client ID and the router
is configured to allocate a specific IP to that Client ID, they both get
the same IP.

NB. Not that this is the problem here. The WB interfaces aren't sending
a Client ID. I was just thinking out loud, remembering that last report
that the wireless interface was given the same IP as the wired.
