Take a debugger and follow the packet as it arrives in the device. If
you can't do this, then your best bet is to contact the supplier of
the TCP stack you are using.

My bet is that the DHCP client code is not happy with the offer. I.e.
it's missing optional things like i.e. the DNS servers etc. and hence
considers the offer not being worthwile.

Btw, next time, put the ehteral dump on an FTP or webserver and post
the linkt. It's a lot easier to download and look at the dump in
ethereal than go through what you posted here.
