Using the new 1.4 release built as a module installed into a 2.6.29-rc6
kernel, I am connecting with wimaxcu just fine to XOHM, and getting an IP
addr straight away on wmx0.

$ ifconfig wmx0

wmx0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1d:e1:02:20:21
          inet addr:68.25.50.79  Mask:255.255.255.255
          inet6 addr: fe80::21d:e1ff:fe02:2021/64 Scope:Link
          UP RUNNING NOARP  MTU:1400  Metric:1
          RX packets:4 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:7 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:5
          RX bytes:1272 (1.2 KB)  TX bytes:1508 (1.5 KB)

But my system isn't getting a default route so I've looked into the behavior
of dhclient as called from/usr/share/wimax/dhcp_renew.sh .

My /var/log/daemon.log has sections that look OK like:

Feb 24 12:19:25 y530 dhclient: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801
Feb 24 12:19:26 y530 dhclient: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801

Feb 24 12:19:41 y530 dhclient: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801
Feb 24 12:19:42 y530 dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on wmx0 to 255.255.255.255 port

Feb 24 12:19:42 y530 dhclient: bound to 68.25.50.79 -- renewal in 1613
seconds.
Feb 24 12:19:42 y530 dhclient: wmaster0: unknown hardware address type 801
Feb 24 12:19:42 y530 dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on wmx0 to 255.255.255.255 port

Feb 24 12:19:42 y530 dhclient: bound to 68.25.50.79 -- renewal in 1780
seconds.

and my resolv.conf looks OK

$ more /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 99.207.212.85
nameserver 99.207.212.87

but my routing table is empty

r...@y530:~$ netstat -rn
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt
Iface
r...@y530:~$

Any ideas?

I may try to manually create a default route next, but to get this far but
not get that is weird.

TIA
