Hi all,

I have a slightly different problem to the network problems when moving laptops
from one location to another.

I have both wired and wireless LANs at home - and I want to be able to move my
laptop between them easily. However, there are now problems at both ends of the
system. Some I have solved using bind, dhcp and dynamic DNS but NFS is a real
headache - mountd doesn't like IP addresses to change etc.

Any ideas on how I can make the wireless and wired LANs look the same? I would
like to avoid bridging the two subnets as the wireless LAN is only 2Mb/s
(the FreeBSD bridging code doesn't do filtering). Is there something I could
do with ipfw/NAT/proxy arp/...?

Duncan
