[Hoary] IPW2200 DHCP problem?

Looking in the forums I see that this issue has affected other users,
but I still can't find a solution. So here it is again;

I have a laptop with the intel ipw2200 wireless chip. After installing
Hoary on this laptop yesterday, I can not get an IP address from my
server. If I connect by cable I get one right away. I can get the
broadcasted ESSID from the access point, and I get full signal, but it
will not pull an IP address. Now here's the rub; I HAD Hoary installed
on this laptop before I reinstalled (clean reformat and install) and
wireless worked right out of the box. Has something changed in the
past couple days?

Thanks for any recommendations,

-P
