How do you know dhcpselect is not running?  pgrep dhcpselect will always
tell you it is not; /etc/rc.d/dhcpselect should tell you the truth.

It may take a while for dhcpselect to settle into a "steady state."
It always starts by running dhclient.

How could you tell no traffic went by the default route?
