kern/132722: [ath] Wifi ath0 associates fine with AP, but DHCP or IP does not work

[Matthias Apitz]

I went today evening with my EeePC and CURRENT on USB key
to that Greek restaurant; DHCP does not get IP in CURRENT either;
this is somehow good news, isn't it :-)

below are some information concerning the AP, ifconfig ...
the output of the tcpdump is on my server as
http://www.unixarea.de/ath-current.txt
let me know if you need more information;

HIH

info about AP:
    Siemens Gigaset SE 505 dsl/cable
    S30853-S1006-R107-3
    (handwritten label says: "this is no DSL router; IP 192.168.2.1")
    as DSL-modem some Fritz!Box is connected to this box
