More interesting yet, after doing some tests, I came to the conclusion, the ath0 interface lost its ip address as soon as a link is detected in eth0, I re-ran everything with the eth0 unplugged.. and everything worked fine until it get a Link.. I dont if this can probably come from the Interrupts:
ath0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:90:96:F6:7E:A7 inet addr:192.168.254.104 Bcast:192.168.254.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:135193 errors:112 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:112 TX packets:171764 errors:23 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:199 RX bytes:106127772 (101.2 MiB) TX bytes:27167651 (25.9 MiB) Interrupt:11 Memory:dc8c0000-dc8d0000

They are both using the same irq...

That's a good bit of info to know as I'm running my laptop with selinux=0 because when I connect it to our corporate network DHCP can't get an IP address with it enabled. Its a Dell D600 laptop with a Broadcom tg3 network adapter. The DHCP server is (unfortunately) a Windows 2003SP1 server.
Are any AVC messages logged when the DHCP client fails?
