NET+OS does't boot without ethernet connection

We offer a product that uses a Digi Connect ME to display system status via a web page. On some of our systems, the Digi Connect ME will not boot into the main thread unless there is an Ethernet cable connected. The only way we have been able to fix this problem is to replace the module on the board with a new one. Is there some way to ensure that the module will start every time it is powered up?

This is programmed behavior defined in bsp_net.h by #define
BSP_WAIT_FOR_IP_CONFIG

you can set it to FALSE to allow application to run regardless of IP.
