I've got an IBM A31p with a ral minipci card. It works fine with two different 802.11b access points (one with WEP, one without), but does not work with 802.11g access point (an OpenBSD box with a ral card). When I associate with the G AP and run dhclient it never gets an IP address. Any ideas?

This may or may not be related to http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?m=114461952810938. At first I thought it was a WEP problem until I tried a WEP 802.11b AP.

I do have both OpenBSD and Windows clients attached to the 802.11g AP.
