Dear All,
I try to connect a laptop (XP) with a FBSD router. If I use only
WEP encryption it works not well but it works. If I apply
IPSec it works miserable but ICMP will not reach any
host. Topology:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
192.168.2.2 (Wifi) 192.168.2.8 (XP Client)
192.168.1.2 (Norm. Ethernet)
This tcpdump is without IPSec but WEP encrypted. Please not
the packet loss of 72%:

^C
--- ibm.mobile ping statistics ---
253 packets transmitted, 69 packets received, 72% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 2.332/4.867/18.501/3.889 ms
I changed the MTU on both cards to 1420 with no avail.
Pinging from the XP Client to FBSD works smoothly.
Overall connectivity is fine.
What could be the (routing) problem, how to solve it?
Cheers Tom
