I don't think this is the case. I was able to connect directly to my laptop and
get a lease immediately.  Its odd... With base dhclient it goes something like:

em0.... no link
em0......... got link

and then nothing.

I installed isc-dhcp-client and it actually goes through the steps of the whole
DHCPDISCOVER...etc,etc. Unfortunantly it still ends with me not having a 
connection.
I doubt it will do anything, but I'm going to try updating the bios. Sort of 
like
checking the oil when the problem is a flat tire, but who knows.

Thanks,

edgar
