    How do you want to ping your router/dhcp_server if you
    don't have IP address assigned/leased to your PC. Ping
    is icmp and uses IP as network protocol.

    Do ifdown <wireless_intf>, start tcpdump with some
    more verbose options and do ifup and check for any
    error in PC-to-dhcp communication.
