Problems with WLAN on ubuntu 7.10

[Jens Strohschnitter]

Hi list,

I'm back from SuSE to ubuntu 7.10. But have a problem with connecting
my internet via wlan. Anything works fine, and drivers/devices are recognized
but I can't connect to the internet, because my notebook has no ip via dhcpd.

Here are some informations about my systemenvironment:

# uname -a
2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 23:05:12 GMT 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

# lspci
0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01)

# iwconfig

My notebook is a DELL Laptitude D620. So I think the problem is, that I can't get an ip-address via dhcp (shown
as above in the messages).

So I hope someone can help me to fix my problem and makes me connecting the world ;-)
