<html><body>Thanks for the reply Alberto. The server is the only thing providing DHCP. This issue is a result of the NIC on the T5525 client. I have opened a case with HP regarding this and also have my account manager pushing this from a sales end. Maybe I can get HP to release a bios update for this model that will fix this issue.

Do you turn off the DHCP Server of your ROUTER? If your ROUTER have on him dhcp server, the thin client takes any path from this dhcp server.

I am using HP T5525 clients in a new lab. I have loade! d K12ltsp6 and K12ltsp7 B.5 with the same results. The client grabs an IP address from the server and begins to boot, at the point where it displays the NIC information, it times out and then gets "DHCPD Error" and hangs. I use wireshark to capture packets and see what is happening. The server keeps handing out DHCP offer packets, but the client never seems to pick them up and keeps sending DHCP request. I have seen several similar issues in Google searches without seeing any real fixes for this problem. Has anyone gotten this to work???? Quickly becoming bald, Ron Ronald R.
