Hi,
I'm trying to configure my freebsd machine as an adsl router wifi access
point for my flat.
So far, the wireless clients are able to access the LAN (except for the
router) but unable to access internet, or ping the router.
i've recently purchased this card :
Netgear MA311.
i installed this card into a windows XP machine to update the firmware to
version 1.4.9 then i put it into the freebsd box
I added wi support during boot by adding this line to my /boot/loader.conf
along with support for miibus and rl :
miibus_load="YES"
if_rl_load="YES"
if_wi_load="YES"
/var/run/dmesg.boot shows this :
wi0: <Intersil Prism2.5> mem 0xeb000000-0xeb000fff irq 12 at device 5.0 on
pci2
wi0: 802.11 address: 00:09:5b:67:4b:7e
wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3874A(Mini-PCI)
wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary 1.01.00, Station 1.04.09
I also have 2 realtek PCI nics (i know they are the worst, but until now
they have done the job at home)
rl0: <RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX> port 0xc000-0xc0ff mem
0xea000000-0xea0000ff irq 10 at device 0.0 on pci2
rl0: Ethernet address: 00:50:8d:47:e5:67
miibus0: <MII bus> on rl0
rlphy0: <RealTek internal media interface> on miibus0
rlphy0: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
rl1: <RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX> port 0xc400-0xc4ff mem
0xea001000-0xea0010ff irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci2
rl1: Ethernet address: 00:50:fc:47:84:38
miibus1: <MII bus> on rl1
rlphy1: <RealTek internal media interface> on miibus1
rlphy1: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
my network is 10.0.2.0/24
the lan ip of my router is 10.0.2.1 on rl0
my public internet IP is 82.67.52.66 on rl1
i run a jail that is 10.0.2.9 aliased on rl0
i have setup my AP with this executable script placed in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
named 001.wifi.sh

The wireless clients are using windows XP with a dlink wifi card under the
name : DWL-650+ (note that this is *not* the same as the DWL-650 card)
note : firewall allowing everything through
cube# ipfw show 1
00001 10988 964347 allow ip from any to any
now the tests :
10.0.2.30 is a client connected to an ethernet switch that is connected to
rl0 on the router
10.0.2.99 is a client connected through the Access point
10.0.2.30 can ping 10.0.2.99
10.0.2.30 can ping 10.0.2.1
10.0.2.99 cannot ping 10.0.2.1
when 10.0.2.1 tries to ping 10.0.2.99 this is what tcpdump sees :
# tcpdump: listening on rl0
12:09:50.169209 arp who-has 10.0.2.99 (0:50:8d:47:e5:67) tell cube.kmem.org
also, 10.0.2.99 is unable to ping 10.0.2.9
Thanks a lot if i can get some help
