IP won't get assigned to an interface by isp dhcp

Hello everyone; I've been using this setting for clients in small offices and what not,  and since all they wanted was to give another nutch of security to their network, we've been intalling cisco routers 2600 series still outhere for their internet connections and we had no issues what so ever, not until we run into cable isp provider, and their dhcp wont be able to assign our interface a dynamic IP, this is the setting aplied to the router interface;

interface fastethernet0/0

ip address dhcp

ip nat outside

no ip redirects

no ip unreachables

no ip proxy-arp

any ideas of why it wont be seen or assigned an ip by their dhcp, I talked to their isp and they assigned a static ip (private one) and we still have the same issue, if i connect a pix 506e interface with the ip add dhcp assigned  to it gets a dynamic ip right away...

Update IOS to begin with. Then, there maybe special settings needed if ISP is using a DHCP relay.

thanks for your answear, and sorry too be away and not able to get back to you guys... i'll try to upgrade the ios, and as far as sub-interfaces... it seems that I have no command for the dot1q on this ios ver (12.2(8)T10... any help will be great if you may know what ver could I upgrade to be able to get assigned a dynamic ip and sub-interfacing working for this application.

Write back once you have updated IOS to latest.

that did the trick.. new IOS and now an ip gets assigned dynamically

Hi,

Try to create a sub-interface on the WAN link with dot1q vlan set to 1. This should help.
