I came across this thread while googling, and I believe that I am
hitting it as well. Specifically, it seems that my ISP (wave-G
broadband) is ignoring any solicit requests that do not come from port
546 (packets are blackholed).
Besides reverting ef53a17, could we consider introducing a config
option to allow the source port to be overridden, as a buggy ISP
workaround?
Thanks,
