Hi! I have simillar problem. I think is a kernel / network driver issue.
My setup is, laptop HP nc6400 + Ubuntu 9.04 upgraded from 8.04 where everything was OK. Network card: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5753M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 21) as eth0. I do not receive ANY PACKETS and problably no packets gets to router (i've checked logs for DHCPREQUEST on the router). I assume that by output of `ifconfig eth0`, where received is 0 and sent is changing +2KB for each `sudo dhcpclient eth0`. I just cant say what's going to my DHCPREQUESTS packets, something is I can't even set static inet IP, i've tried: - by NetworkManager - editing /etc/network/interfaces - editing dhcpclient dhcp.conf file and setting alias for my eth0 The thing is odd because hopefully my WirelessCard send/receive DHCP OFFERS and REQUESTS :) Any other computer in the network do not have problems with getting IP from the router (Windows XP machines). PS: I've tried this method http://www.prash-babu.com/2009/05/how-to-fix- ip-by-dhcp-issue-in-ubuntu.html and that did not change aything. -- dhcp fails, but succeeds after ifdown/ifup in rc.local https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374006 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
