My gateway machine has a PCI to PCMCIA Adapter in it which holds a WLAN card (ELSA Airlancer M11). I run the network as a peer to peer. Would it be possible to run the gateway as an access point? I've read that this works only with a certain brand of cards (prism chip). When I watch the packets coming in on the gateway via wi0 I see this: www# tcpdump -i wi0 tcpdump: listening on wi0 09:27:00.527112 :: > ff02::1:ff49:80a8: icmp6: neighbor sol: who has fe80::202:2 dff:fe49:80a8 09:27:04.038878 fe80::202:2dff:fe49:80a8 > ff02::2:df25:ccc1: HBH icmp6: multica st listener report max resp delay: 0 addr: ff02::2:df25:ccc1 [hlim 1] 09:27:07.302261 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: xid:0xaaa8a83a [|bootp ] [tos 0x10] 09:27:07.304679 192.168.0.1.bootps > mybook.bootpc: xid:0xaaa8a83a Y:kuku book2k S:192.168.0.1 [|bootp] [tos 0x10] 09:27:07.323652 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: xid:0xaaa8a83a [|bootp ] [tos 0x10] 09:27:07.324025 192.168.0.1.bootps > mybook.bootpc: xid:0xaaa8a83a Y:kuku book2k S:192.168.0.1 file ""[|bootp] [tos 0x10] 09:27:07.636429 arp who-has mybook tell mybook 09:27:08.039217 fe80::202:2dff:fe49:80a8 > ff02::1:ff49:80a8: HBH icmp6: multica st listener report max resp delay: 0 addr: ff02::1:ff49:80a8 [hlim 1] 09:27:10.963995 arp who-has 192.168.0.1 tell mybook 09:27:10.964115 arp reply 192.168.0.1 is-at 0:2:2d:49:90:ce Help!
