I have no clean solution. Tobias Roth is working on this and I think
it's pretty close, but until he gets it ready for prime time, it's a
manual operation. killall dhclient, route flush, ifconfig em0 down,
ifconfig em0 up, dhclient em0. This assumes that the network you connect
to has a DHCP server. Of course, this requires root permissions.
