Hi! I'm trying to use an SMC 2632W 802.11b wireless card as an access point. Clients can associate without any apparent problem, but things go downhill pretty quickly from there. If I try to ping the AP machine from a client, the arp who-has makes it across the wireless link, but the arp reply never makes it back to the client. Here is my machine: FreeBSD brooklyn-bridge 4.7-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE-p2 #0: Sat Dec 21 01:57:24 PST 2002 jmuelmen@brooklyn-bridge:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BROOKLYN-BRIDGE i386 Here is the card: Dec 22 00:51:42 brooklyn-bridge /kernel: wi0: <PRISM2STA WaveLAN> port 0x1c00-0x1c3f,0x1880-0x18ff mem 0xf4008000-0xf4008fff irq 10 at device 14.0 on pci0 Dec 22 00:51:42 brooklyn-bridge /kernel: wi0: 802.11 address: 00:04:e2:57:80:f6 Dec 22 00:51:42 brooklyn-bridge /kernel: wi0: using RF:PRISM2 MAC:HFA3841 CARD:HWB3163 rev.A Dec 22 00:51:42 brooklyn-bridge /kernel: wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary 0.03.00, Station 0.08.03 Here is the configuration of the wireless card: wi0: flags=8847<UP,BROADCAST,DEBUG,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::204:e2ff:fe57:80f6%wi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255 ether 00:04:e2:57:80:f6 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect <hostap> (DS/2Mbps <hostap>) status: associated ssid john_f_kennedy_international 1:john_f_kennedy_international stationname "FreeBSD AP" channel 7 authmode OPEN powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100 wepmode OFF weptxkey 1 Here is the client associated: 1 station: 00:30:65:07:fa:34 asid=0530, flags=3<ASSOC,AUTH>, caps=1<ESS>, rates=f<1M,2M,5.5M,11M> Am I doing anything obviously wrong?
