Yes I do use wifi, but my configuration is a bit out of the ordinary since I need a wifi ad-hoc connection (without Ethernet). I'm currently investigating what is going on. I noticed that the pi tries several times to connect to the wifi network and each time it launches udhcpc to re-query for an IP address. That process takes a lot of time. Only thing is, I need an ad-hoc network connection (not a connection with an AP), which I have configured manually since the webpages do not support that. My guess is that the "normal" configuration is interfering with my manual configuration (or the other way around). And I guess that the "normal" configuration takes precedence to my manual configuration. But like I said, I'm still investigation what is going on. It is strange though that my manual configuration for the wifi card works when the pi has an Ethernet connection. With the Ethernet cable disconnected my manual config does not work. But in both cases (with and without Ethernet) the pi take a long time to boot due to the udhcpc process (triggered because I have wifi set to on). Maybe I need to set wireless to off in the webpages and then run my manual configuration (?).
