 I went today evening with my EeePC and CURRENT on USB key
 to that Greek restaurant; DHCP does not get IP in CURRENT either;
 this is somehow good news, isn't it :-)
 
 below are some information concerning the AP, ifconfig ...
 the output of the tcpdump is on my server as
 http://www.unixarea.de/ath-current.txt
 let me know if you need more information;

 info about AP:
     Siemens Gigaset SE 505 dsl/cable
     S30853-S1006-R107-3
     (handwritten label says: "this is no DSL router; IP 192.168.2.1")
     as DSL-modem some Fritz!Box is connected to this box
