Hi eltone
You are attempting take a quote by gerald_clark and use it out of context.
The existing discussion is about wireless network connections. You are now starting a new topic and that should be in a

Why do you think an update would solve the problem? If you are unhappy with udhcpc you can try dhcp.tcz the official ISC client. But trust others, it IS NOT an udhcp issue!

Dear bmarkus:
Here is the problem, if I take the functional LiveUSB w/udhcpc to another PC, udhcpc freezes 80% and fully functions the other 20% of the time!
'dhcp.tcz' is not in the tc-4.x repo, so I just installed the 'dhcpcd.tcz' DHCP client on my stable 4.77 LiveUSB, to test:
--- Code: ---
tc@box:~$ sudo dhcpcd wlan0 -X 192.168.0.64 -h box
dhcpcd[2266]: version 5.2.12 starting
dhcpcd[2266]: wlan0: waiting for carrier
dhcpcd[2266]: wlan0: carrier acquired
dhcpcd[2266]: wlan0: broadcasting for a lease
dhcpcd[2266]: wlan0: offered 192.168.0.64 from 192.168.0.1
dhcpcd[2266]: wlan0: acknowledged 192.168.0.64 from 192.168.0.1
dhcpcd[2266]: wlan0: checking for 192.168.0.64
dhcpcd[2266]: wlan0: leased 192.168.0.64 for 86400 seconds
dhcpcd[2266]: forked to background, child pid 2303
tc@box:~$
--- End code ---
It appears dhcpcd accepted the static IP address, but NO AP connection, yet NO errors were trapped!
To post this note, udhcpc was used:
--- Code: ---c@box:~$ sudo udhcpc -b -i wlan0 -x hostname:box -p /var/run/udhcpc.wlan0.pid
udhcpc (v1.20.2) started
Sending discover...
Sending select for 192.168.0.64...
Lease of 192.168.0.64 obtained, lease time 86400

--- End code ---
This dialog indicates dhcpcd didn't add the dns server addresses!
Q: How can the essential dns servers be functional w/dhcpcd?
Sincerely,
eltone
bmarkus:
Do you have the same problem connecting to other AP/router or just this one?
gerald_clark:
Your claims do not match your evidence.
You could not get an IP address if you were not associated to an access point.
I don't know how you are specifying 4 dns servers. Only 3 can be used.
