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
