The router type is Linksys WRT160Nv2, f/w rev v2.0.03.  DHCP is enabled with 
start address 192.168.0.100.  NAT is enabled, DMZ is disabled, essentially all 
the settings are default.  

There is a straight Ethernet cable tied between the router and the TS-7200.  
Below is the terminal output on boot up:

(and it continues forever...)

Since my last post I was able to get the TS-7200 to successfully get an address 
by reserving an IP address on the router for the MAC of the TS-7200.  DHCP is 
still enabled on the router, but it immediately recognizes the MAC and assigns 
the reserved IP.  Hopefully that will help figure out why 'standard' DHCP isn't 
working.

I'm not sure if there is any other information I can provide to figure this out 
- if so, please let me know, and thanks for any help you can offer.
