I'm sorry for replying for myself again, but i found a workaround for my problem. I unloaded bridge.ko # kldunload bridge I loaded ng_ether and ng_bridge # kldload ng_ether # kldload ng_bridge I then copied this file to my /root folder for doing some tests # cp /usr/share/examples/netgraph/ether.bridge /root/ether.bridge I put the values corresponing to my setup in the /root/ether.bridge file BRIDGE_IFACES="wi0 rl0" LOCAL_IFACE="rl0" I started the bridge # sh /root/ether.bridge start To test if the problem was the same, i removed the arp entry for my wireless laptop on 10.0.2.99 on wi0 # arp -d 10.0.2.99 I then tried to ping 10.0.2.99 # ping 10.0.2.99 PING 10.0.2.99 (10.0.2.99): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 10.0.2.99: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=42.430 ms cube# arp 10.0.2.99 ? (10.0.2.99) at 00:80:c8:07:29:5c on rl0 [ethernet] it all works like it should :ppppp :D i'd still like to know where i went wrong with the /modules/bridge.ko Tom ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Dymond" <tom@kmem.org> To: <freebsd-stable@freebsd.org> Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2003 9:34 AM Subject: Re: bridge troubles with wi > Hi > > Thanks for trying to help out. > > After a few more tests and clues, i managed to ping the router from the > wireless client on the condition that i specify : > > on the router 10.0.2.1: > cube# arp -s 10.0.2.99 00:80:c8:07:29:5c > > and > > on the wireless client 10.0.2.99: > (cmd.exe on windows xp) arp -s 10.0.2.1 00:50:8d:47:e5:67 > > now that i know what causes it, i dont know how come i have to enter these > manually. > > a few bits of information i forgot to specify in my last email to the group > : > > system : > i dont feel comfortable posting a whole dmesg output in the list so i'll put > it on my webserver at this address : > dmesg : http://kmem.org/dmesg.boot > rc.conf : http://kmem.org/rc.conf > > > > Thanks > > Tom > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Crist J.
