Forgot to mention that I just rem out "llaecs /S" in \mptn\bin\setup.cmd.  Seems to work fine as long as I keep the "-d 0" parm on dhcpstrt.

    

Chuck:

I'll look at this again later.  Right now I am having success by adding at the bottom of mptstart.cmd the route flush and then repeating the route setup that is in setup.cmd.  And I added xwlan widget and set it to keep radio off.

It's redundant but it forces the route to go to the correct place.

  
Are you certain that you don;t have two active DHCP servers on your network?
I guess the whole problem is I'm using a dhcp server that is located inside my network rather than on the perimeter.  
The implication here is that DHCP in the one on the perimeter should be disabled. I use my NetWare servers for DHCP, so my firewall does not have DHCP enabled. Thus, no address conflicts.
Since I've never used dhcp w/ os2 on my network I've never had a problem.  The computers running win get by just fine so I never gave it a 2nd thought.  Maybe I'd have better luck running dhcpcd on my gateway/firewall computer.  Some other time.....,.,

  
Again, as long as there is only one active DHCP server on a given subnet (well, this is an over-simplification; of course there are DHCP implementations which provide for clustering, failover, and redundancy, but that's not what we're discussing), you should be getting the correct information.
Now that I might have this working I have to unplug the ethernet and see how it goes with wireless.

  
Enjoy!
