tarball of the logs

I'm using busybox v.1.17.3 on an embedded device running Linux 2.6.26.

I need to get an IP address from a DHCP relay agent running on a Windows 2000
server. The connection media is 802.11abgn. Using Wireshark I'm able to see the 
DISCOVER packet issued by udhcpc but no reply is sent by the server.

Here you can find the Wireshark logs:
  TWG_31.pcap shows the DISCOVER packet (not replied) from my device (frame #31)
  PC_142.pcap shows the DISCOVER packet (replied) from a Windows based PC 
              (frame #142)

Best regards

Can you try a newer release of busybox?
