Thanks, Reimundo. If what you say is true, I have done that on both of 
my devices. This is what's so frustrating. Since I can't connect with 
either device, the problem lies in something common to the both of them. 
There are only a limited number of options: kernel configuration, 
configuration files and bootscripts. I have compared the configuration 
file--/etc/dhclient.conf--and the bootscripts to those in my other 
laptop and they are identical. That leaves the kernel and I just don't 
see what's wrong there either. I'm hoping that someone can see another 
avenue to explore.
