That might be a potential problem, my cvsup hangs as well. I have setup dhcp via wireless (ipw driver) for thinkpad. how do you change the name server? and is there anything i need to change in my dhcp setup? My ping on freebsd responds faster than the ping on windows xp, so i think the basic network is working. And i was running dhcp on XP via wireless as well, and it didn't seem to have any problems....
