Just testing this myself a moment ago, it appears that the pager kicked out with renderPager() does not work with the AJAX setting. The CGridView JavaScript only binds the AJAX to pagers inside the <div> rendered by the widget (#response-grid here), so it does not find and use your additional pager.

I just use the default pager that the CGridView renders at the bottom, and that works fine.

You could override the CGridView JS to fix this, or list it as an enhancement on the Yii bug tracker: http://code.google.com/p/yii/issues/list
