Bug Description
Hi everyone
I am in a trouble with my internet connection on Edgy knot2 (the same was already buggy with knot1). The default DHCP does not work at all : host unreachable.
When I configure a fix IP and when I give my rooter as DNS, I am able to solve ip (host contacted; wait for reply), but I never get any responses.
I only experience the problem at home : the same laptop et university get the connection on the liveCD without problem.
Here are some techical descriptions :

After a lot of modifications (more or less randomize changes of IP, mask and so on), I got the connection. But after retry the DHCP, I never got it again. So it is not *impossible* but it is highy unreproducible (however the bug is reproducible !).
Thanks

Confirm this problem with Edgy knot3 upgraded from Dapper. Can't get an IP for eth0, message is same as "send_packet: Message too long".
$lspci | grep Ethernet
00:12.0 Ethernet controller: National Semiconductor Corporation DP83815 (MacPhyter) Ethernet Controller
$lsmod | grep nat*
natsemi 30112 0
And, "sudo dhclient wlan0" (zd1211) is OK to get an IP, however there is "SIOCSIFMTU: Invalid argument" message.
