I'm not sure if this is related but we're using FreeBSD with a Emerging Technologies T1 card to do ADSL Bridging and ran into a problem where for example, if a bridge group was like... 216.235.44.1 255.255.255.0 All the nodes 216.235.44.2-254 can see 216.235.44.1 fine but it nothing in 216.235.44.2 - 254 can see each other. It seems to be they can't see each other if they are in the same subnet. So it seems all machines in the bridge group can see the gateway and the rest of the world but not each other. Is there a way around this? This is with 4.1-RELEASE, 4.1.1-RELEASE and even 4.2-RELEASE.
