It still doesn't seem to work on Optus ADSL (Australia), and I think the reason is that the creation of the host route is conditional on the netmask:
/sbin/dhclient-script:198: if [ "$new_subnet_mask" == "255.255.255.255" ]; then ... because the interface is given an IP address with subnet 255.255.255.0, and a gateway address that is not in this range. Why not just remove the conditional line? No harm in (trying to) creating a host route to the gateway, even if it is redundant? -- dhcp fails for gateway on different subnet https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/139217 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
