Hi,
Your eth0's network contains of the wlan IP range.
10.0.1.37/16 is part of a network ip range of 10.0.0.1 to 10.0.255.254
Your wlan range is inside that so no routing is performed.

You want to use a class C range for the wlan, so instead of 10.0.10.0
network,
try using one of the 192.168. class C networks. It may make be best to
use 2
different 192.168 networks (say 192.168.0.0/24 for LAN and
192.168.1.0/24 for
the WLAN).

Class A 1.0.0.0 - 127.255.255.255
Class B 128.0.0.0 - 191.255.255.255
Class C  192.0.0.0 - 223.255.255.255

Hope that helps.

Hi Pete


I use 10.1.10.0 as network for my wlan0 interface. The both interfaces
seam to be ok: I can run telnet on each network (LAN on eth0 and WLAN on
wlan0). But the problem persists: it's impossible to ping a machine on
LAN area (10.0.2.201) from a machine in WLAN area (10.1.10.2).
The interfaces configurations are:
Eth0:
        InetAddr: 10.0.1.37/16
        Network: 10.0.1.0
        Broadcast: 10.0.1.255
Wlan0:
        InetAddr: 10.1.10.1/24
        Network: 10.1.10.0
        Broadcast: 10.1.10.255 

L'IP forwarding is active (echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward).

The netstat -rn output is:
Table de routage IP du noyau
Destination   Passerelle    Genmask       Indic   MSS Fenêtre irtt
Iface
10.1.10.0     0.0.0.0       255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0

10.0.0.0      0.0.0.0       255.255.0.0     U         0 0          0

eth0

The iptables --numeric --verbose --List output is:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 76 packets, 5196 bytes)
 pkts bytes target   prot opt in   out     source
destination        

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)

destination        
    0     0 ACCEPT     all  --  *      *       0.0.0.0/0
0.0.0.0/0         

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 76 packets, 5196 bytes)
 pkts bytes target   prot opt in     out     source

I don't understand what happen!!???
Please, can you help me?

Thank you very much,

Cheers,

I'm not sure but I think that my first reply didn't reach RH disc. list
so I'll post it again. 
 
The network from eth0 isn't correct: it should be 10.0.0.0 for IP with
/16 mask.
 
Oups, I make a key error: I agree with you, for eth0, the network is
10.0.0.0 (not 10.0.1.0) and the broadcast is 10.0.255.255.
I'm sorry !
Here are the ifcfg-eth0 & ifcfg-wlan0:
 
# Please read /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt
# for the documentation of these parameters.
USERCTL=no
PEERDNS=yes
GATEWAY=10.0.0.1
TYPE=Ethernet
DEVICE=eth0
#BOOTPROTO=none
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
NETMASK=255.255.0.0
ONBOOT=yes
DHCP_HOSTNAME=10.0.2.201
#IPADDR=10.0.3.1
NETWORK=10.0.0.0
BROADCAST=10.0.255.255
 
 
# Please read /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt
# for the documentation of these parameters.
DEVICE=wlan0
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=10.1.10.1
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=10.1.10.0
BROADCAST=10.1.10.255
 
Cheers,
 
Yann
 

Bottom line: is it working now? :)
