Ok.
In this case, from the Windows and Linux boxes point of view nothing
should change, either they still remembering other's MAC (this case it
will just send unicast direct packet) or not (broadcast ARP is send).
Agreed.
The fact that problem persisted tells me that the problem is in modems
and not in linux bridge.
Agreed.
Will you try one more step after you re-run the test? Namely, when the
boxen can't ping each other, try rebooting one or both of the modems and
see if the problem continues after doing so.
I have a feeling you have just about all the evidence you need to go
back to your modem vendor's support and say "Listen up... what you told
me was wrong and here's my proof.".
Grant. . . .
