-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi. Running up to date Sid, kernel 2.6.17-2-686
I brought up my ath0 (madwifi driver 802.11G) a few hours ago, and just looked at the interface. Here are the consecutive commands from my console window: - --------------------------- # ifup ath0 Internet Software Consortium DHCP Client 2.0pl5 Copyright 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999 The Internet Software Consortium.

Until 2.6.17, the DHCP server address of 192.168.1.16 was all that ever showed up. The 192.168.1.1 gateway and WAP show up just fine in the arp cache, routing still seems to work just fine. - --------------------------- # arp -a gateway4 (192.168.1.1) at 00:01:02:57:12:74 [ether] on ath0 ?
