When the radio is operating in adhoc mode, I see multicast traffic, but no unicast traffic. However, if I run tcpdump on the ath interface I get sporadic traffic. It's possible I'm still misconfigured, but the fact that putting the interface into promiscuous mode changes the behavior of the interface kinda points elsewhere. We have this application running fine on 4521s with both an & wi radios. Is this a known problem? thanks, dave c
