left the modem off overnight, but no luck :(

tried this under linux 2.4.0 using dhclient, pump, and dhcpcd - but same
results as on freebsd. could it be hardware?

am using an intel ee pro 10/100 -or- a cnet 10/100 that the roadrunner guy
gave me - same results.

here is tcpdump, note the arp request with an rr ip address and MAC of my
nic:

tcpdump: listening on dc0
