Your router is blocking DHCP requests.
The router isn't blocking DHCP. The router is the DHCP client. It's the router that initiates and manages IP connectivity through it's WAN interface via DHCP.
With Linksys routers, the most common culprit is a firmware problem. I have had success by flashing it down a revision, then back up to the most current.
And please, no one try to blame this on the "Block WAN request" feature, that's not the problem. -- No man, for any considerable period, can wear one face to himself and another to the multitude, without finally getting bewildered as to which may be true. -Hawthorne |
