Bug Description
Binary package hint: dhcp
Hello,
Jaunty(64bit) fails to get an IP-Address from DHCP (dhcp client v3.1.1) at boot by the router of the cable network. The company (cablecom, Mr. Cekic) says, it's not a modem or network problem. The Cable Device is Cisco/Scientific Atlanta EPC2203. Windows XP works as my cable-phone does.
The case is similar to other reports. Forcing dhcp3-client to send on eth0 the eth0 mac doesnt change the problem. Similar but not identical to #354471.
The only solution I found is keep calling /sbin/dhclient EVERY 15minutes (lease time is about 30min).
Some Details:
+ifconfig eth0 right after boot: (not working)
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet Hardware Adresse 00:30:1......f
inet Adresse:
+after calling dhclient manually (and repeating to do so every 900 seconds)
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet Hardware Adresse 00:30:1.......f
inet Adresse:84.7.....41 Bcast:255.
netstat -rn (working)

I see this on my eeepc, Jaunty NBR, 32-bit. NM actually works, but is prevented from setting the lease and so thinks that it hasn't, or something like that:
Oct 25 08:12:02 gulik kernel: [ 64.206320] type=1503 audit(125641152
(the .filesystem stuff is just due to a unionfs'ed filesystem backed by squashfs)
is there a workaround?
