Subject: [OS2Wireless] Problems with Wayport Wi-Fi

Thanks, Michael. I may have been offbase, as interestingly enough, a quick reboot to W2K successfully gleaned a lease, and a subsequent reboot to OS/2 seemed to
 obtain - and later renew - an address.

Unfortunately, I have logging disabled in both the driver and dhcpcd, so I can't really trace back what happened.
