Now that you mentioned the dhcp problem, I recollect the client mentioning that the device has to be started 10 min before they start work. Otherwise it works fine. The client is into share trading and his systems are updated every second. The WiMax is also routed to the Netgear Wireless router for his laptop. Sometimes to take care of downtime, the MTNL router is also in the circuit with appropriate IPs. The client simply changes the gateway and DNS (same as gateway) entry.
For WiMax, the minimum height of the dish antenna has to be 3rd floor and facing the tower without much obstacles. -- Regards, Rony. GNU/Linux ! No Viruses No Spyware Only Freedom. -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
