I was running manually set address,Link local is only the last thing I  
tried neither is anymore successful than the other for me.
The reason I run a separate subnet is that the is no antenna cable  
anywhere near my modem router for the HDHR and the myth box is on a  
wireless LAN because I don't want to run cat6 cable through


the ceiling and walls to get to the mythbox.

Here's mythbackend log immediately after boot:
