My wireless adapter is connected to my accesspoint (192.168.178.1) which provides ip's over dhcp.
However my wireless adapter seem not to accept the provided ip.

Code:
dhcpcd[3805]: version 6.6.7 starting
dhcpcd[3805]: DUID 00:01:00:01:1c:7b:c5:a4:74:d4:35:f9:1a:01
dhcpcd[3805]: wlp0s20u5u1: IAID 00:26:bf:07
dhcpcd[3805]: wlp0s20u5u1: soliciting a DHCP lease
dhcpcd[3805]: wlp0s20u5u1: offered 192.168.178.23 from 192.168.178.1
dhcpcd[3805]: wlp0s20u5u1: soliciting an IPv6 router
dhcpcd[3805]: wlp0s20u5u1: probing for an IPv4LL address
dhcpcd[3805]: wlp0s20u5u1: using IPv4LL address 169.254.47.9
dhcpcd[3805]: wlp0s20u5u1: adding route to 169.254.0.0/16
dhcpcd[3805]: forked to background, child pid 3830


If i set the ip, broadcast and gateway manually with ifconfig it works fine.
Any ideas what goes wrong with dhcpcd?

iwconfig:
Code:

wlp0s20u5u1  IEEE 802.11abgn  ESSID:"xxxxxxxx" 
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.472 GHz  Access Point: xx:xx:xx:xx:x:xx

          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:6  Invalid misc:235   Missed beacon:0


ifconfig:
Code:

egrep -v '(^#|^$)' /etc/dhcpcd.conf
Code:
persistent

option domain_name_servers, domain_name, domain_search, host_name
option classless_static_routes
option ntp_servers
require dhcp_server_identifier
slaac private
nohook lookup-hostname


cat /etc/conf.d/net
Code:

Is your AP configured to "only accept known devices"?
I'm having same problem with Fritz!Box and a dual booting (windows 7 and gentoo) laptop. The AP accepts the wlan device only from the one or the other OS. When I boot the other OS the device needs to be registerd again as new device. And the wlan device cannot be registered twice as it's always the same MAC address.

I have indeed a Fritz!Box but the box is configured to accept all new devices.

Fortunately the problem seems to be solved, as my wireless adapter now accepts the ip provided by the fritz!box. All i have done is to reemerge udev-init-scripts which solved the problem.
