[Madwifi-users] Madwifi with two cards: Ap and client on teh same machine

[Mario <mar...@mp...>]

Hi all,
I'm using the latest CSV version of madwifi and works fine with my two cards on
RH9: Orinoco Gold and 3Com 3CRPAG175.
I can insert both card at the same time and are showed as ath0 and ath1.
Now i'd like to use ath0 as a client while ath1 runs in master mode as an AP.
Ath1 works ok as an AP and honors DHCP requests giving ip addresses to clients.
Even ath0 as a client works ok and receive his ip from ath1.
the problem is that when a third clients conencts to the AP and I try to
comminicate to him from ath0, even with a stupind ping, the system stucks.
At the moment the situation is
AP:
ath1 with 3CRPAG175 on 192.168.0.1 and DHCP server on
client 1:
ath0 with Orinoco Gold on 192.168.0.100 got from ath1 via DHCP
client 2:
external client on 192.168.0.101 got from ath1 via DHCP

If i try to ping 192.168.0.101 from the laptop, the system crashes (from the
laptop LCD the icons related to PCMCIA are gone).

Any help could be precious

Mario
