i have a hawking hwu54g wireless usb card. while running dhcpcd -d wlan0, i see the following.
Code:

Sep  9 15:16:05 mocha dhcpcd[11455]: broadcasting DHCP_DISCOVER
Sep  9 15:16:45 mocha dhcpcd[11426]: timed out waiting for a valid DHCP server response


i turned off all encryption on the router (real smart), and still can't get an address from this thing. the router is a belkin router. here's some more info:

Code:

mocha ~ # iwlist wlan0 scan
wlan0     Scan completed :
          Cell 01 - Address: 00:30:BD:C6:D7:70
                    ESSID:"stfu"
                    Mode:Master
                    Frequency:2.427 GHz (Channel 4)
                    Quality:68/92  Signal level=37/154  Noise level=0/154
                    Encryption key:off
                    Bit Rate:1 Mb/s
                    Bit Rate:2 Mb/s
                    Bit Rate:5.5 Mb/s
                    Bit Rate:11 Mb/s
mocha ~ # iwconfig wlan0
wlan0     802.11b/g NIC  ESSID:"stfu"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency=2.412 GHz  Access Point: 00:30:BD:C6:D7:70
          Bit Rate:1 Mb/s
          Retry:off   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Encryption key:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality=100/92  Signal level=11/154  Noise level=161/154
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0


any help is most appreciated. i have another laptop with builtin wi-fi that connects to the router and gets ip just fine with or without encryption.
