In korea, KT has over 1/2 market share in internet connection.
KT has begun it's new authentication system, which All type of services(ADSL, VDSL, Cable...)
authenticate via DHCP. But it need a network MAC address and hostname.
it can easily configure by edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf. But it can't modified during install
session, since Ubuntu installation can only select "send hostname" via normal installation
process.
it can easily configured only write dhclient.conf with
send host-name "computer id"; #it can be configured during ubuntu installation session
send dhcp-client-identifier mac address;
I suggest when dhcp-autoconfigure failed, I can set option with "send hostname and send
MacAddress".
In addition to above, dapper users who use KT are complaing about too many times in a day they lost connections randomly. Seems renewal isn't working properly, and users have to do "sudo dhclient" thing manually. Any suggestion?
