Posted this in troubleshooting but you never know...
I can no longer get DHCP addresses from working WEP protected networks. This started happening all of a sudden today on two different WEP networks I have access to, after several successful sessions.
A network sniff shows the N800 sending out DHCP Discover packets, but there's no ACK coming back. On the other hand, I can watch other devices do discovers and get replies, so I know the DHCP service is functioning. This leads me to think that the discover packets are malformed, but they look good to me.
Anyone else having this problem and have a solution? I don't have a WPA network to test with, and I know I have the WEP key correct (or my sniff, which was collected on a different system, wouldn't have worked).
