I am having issues with one of my OBSD boxes receiving DHCP IP address from my ADSL modem. This problem has just started recently and I am not sure if it's a software or hardware that's causing the issue. My network interface is fxp0 and if I do "ifconfig fxp0", it shows "status: no career". If I do "dhclient fxp0" I get the following:
DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 DHCPREQUEST on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 1 DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 2 DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 5 DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 11 DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 13 DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 12 DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 13 DHCPDISCOVER on fxp0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4 No DHCPOFFERS received. Trying recorded lease 192.16.25.11 bound: renewal in 13249 seconds My /etc/hostname.fxp0 file reads: dhcp NONE NONE NONE NONE. I have been using this exact same setting for a long time now. I don't have any problem with the ADSL modem as other machines can receive DHCP addresses fine. I have also changed the CAT5 cable. Is there anything more I could do to figure out what the problem is? Or am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help.
