I'm trying to get a Linksys WET11 Wireless Ethernet Bridge working with a D-Link 530 NIC that uses the rl driver. I have configured the bridge and gotten it to work with a Windows XP box if I tell the bridge to use "MAC address cloning". However I can not get it working on my 4.8 FBSD box. I'm not really sure but I suspect my problem might be with ARP? The rl0 interface is configured as 192.168.100.2 and the bridge is connected to this interface. The bridge is configured with an IP address of 192.168.100.225 but as I understand it, this is only the address to use when connecting to the web based configuration utility. I have a Linksys access point with IP of 192.168.100.1. Anyway, after attempting connections to these three addresses, my arp table looks like this: ? (192.168.100.1) at (incomplete) on rl0 [ethernet] ? (192.168.100.2) at 00:05:5d:d0:ba:67 on rl0 permanent [ethernet] ? (192.168.100.225) at (incomplete) on rl0 [ethernet] I can not get any response from any device beyond the rl0 interface. I setup ipfw to log all traffic to that interface and can see the traffic going out: Sep 27 15:18:04 blacksheep /kernel: ipfw: 50 Accept ICMP:8.0 192.168.100.2 192.168.100.1 out via rl0 Sep 27 15:24:00 blacksheep /kernel: ipfw: 50 Accept ICMP:8.0 192.168.100.2 192.168.100.225 out via rl0 Can anyone educate me on arp and if it's my problem, tell me what I might need to add to my arp table to get things going? Thanks, Drew
