All machines on net A and net B must use the gateway machine as their DEFAULT ROUTE .. or else you may have to set a default route in the real default router for the specific subnet to go to the gateway machine ... yikes.. even I got lost in that.. suffice it to say, use the gateway machine as the default router on both nets, and that should work (thats sorta how I have my wireless working) Tommy On Sat, 2003-01-04 at 09:34, Reinhard X.
