When I run <dhclient wlan0>, I get:
DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 5
...this is repeated with interval 7, 11, 21, 14 and 3...
No DHCPOFFERS received

Thanks for wading through this.

You have to connect to a wireless network first. There isn't any magical
auto detection / connections here. You have to do it yourself.
I think there's a disconnect between you and me. Yes, you've said this
before and this is what I thought I was doing. Maybe I'm being obtuse
here. If you mean manually configure my wireless devices so that they
can "connect" to my router, which is a dhcp server--or a server in a
"hot spot"--that's what I have tried to do. I have an almost identical
setup in an older laptop. There only are two differences: the interface
is a pcmcia card and there is no init script for dhcp. The dhclient
scripts for my wireless card and the pcmcia card are identical.
Given this, could you be a little more explicit when you say "you have
to do it yourself."
Thanks,
Dan
Thanks,
