Comment:

 The syslog with the router does not contain any helpful information (ie.
 the actual DHCP acquisition could be helpful). In the no router situation,
 it looks like no packet is received at all.

 Is your router configured as a DHCP server? If it is missing, who is
 providing the DHCP address -- the cable modem directly? And if you have
 internet through the cable modem, it seems to already include a router on
 its own, as Haiku does not have a working PPP stack at the moment.

 I will follow diver's tip, and try if I can reproduce the problem using
 VirtualBox and/or Qemu.
