It looks like maybe your WiFi network could be putting out dome bad IP info, or the DHCP server serving up IP info.

Hi.
I have connected my new Nokia N810 to my local wi-fi network.
It is mostly working fine except that it appears to have installed a
spurious route whish is effectively blackholing some traffic.
Details:
I have the N810 configured to use a static IP address for my local
wireless (wi-fi) network. For the sake of argument let us say this is
11.12.13.249 with a netmask of 255.255.255.240. The gateway for this
network is 11.12.13.241.
The connectivity mechanism correctly generates a default route via
11.12.13.241 for the wlan interface.
However it also generates another route to 11.0.0.0 with netmask 255.0.0.0.
Consequently all packets to addresses 11.x.y.z apart for the local
network are effectively blackholed.
The routing table is (anonymized) ..
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use
Iface
11.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0
wlan0
default router.exampl.c 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0
wlan0
This is clearly incorrect as the local network is not a /8.
Is this a bug in the udhcpc postconfig script when used woth a static
address? I can't actually find this script to check.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Elwyn Davies
