Guys,
I also posted this on comp.os.linux.networking but I think this group my be more appropriate.
I have just got a wireless access point that plugs into a switch. My setup is like this:
Linux box performing NAT using two ethernet cards on 192.168.0.1 allows PCs on 192.168.0.2 and 3 to see the internet - this works fine using iptables.
I have the wireless access point on the same switch at 192.168.0.50 and it is giving my laptop an IP of 169.254.5.126 on the wireless side.
If I attempt to ping 192.168.0.1 from the wireless, I can see the lights flicker on the wireless gateway, and the lights on the switch that 192.168.0.1 is connected to, but I never get a reply.
I have set the default gateway on the access point to 192.168.0.1, but I cannot see the internet from the wireless network at all.
I know I need to setup some sort of routes, but I dont know what or where! Can anyone help?
