I just heard about this problem yesterday and said I'd deal with it on another mailing list...

FWIW it is most helpful to post freebsd questions on freebsd mailing lists where most of the developers "hang out". If your question is about the ral code in CVS then posting a question to a private mailing list is less likely to find a response than posting to the appropriate freebsd-* mailing list. > > authentication is succesfull, but there is a problem with arp and dhcp. > > in sys/net80211/ieee80211_input.c (ieee80211_deliver_data) there is some > code to bridge incomming packets to other connected stations.
