To: madwifi-users, gentoo-user
Hello list!
I'm having some problems setting a wireless network consisting of a
gentoo ap, one gentoo station and one Windows XP station.
I've followed the instructions on the madwifi.org and on gentoo
specialized forums and wiki. Seems like the "wireless" part of the
network is just fine and every station can connect to the ap, but I
can't do more than ping the hosts in the winxp station and the gentoo
station connects to the network but can't do nothing... not even ping
the ap.
Nothing wrong with logs and signal... but it seems that all the
network services and protocols (tcp, udp and icmp for the gentoo
station) aren't working.
The strange thing is that the Windows XP host can ping the ap, however
it can't get a dhcp address and even using static IP can't access
services on the AP like http and ssh. This machine can ping hosts on
the internet but can't access tcp or udp services. Iptraf on the AP
reports the connections.
The other Gentoo workstation can scan and connect to the network but
can't do nothing more.

Windows Machine:
No bad logs, no problems. It can ping the router ap, ping internet
address and even get dns responses from the ap. All other network
functions doesn't work.
Both stations reports good signal.
What about the "ath_hal: module license 'Proprietary' taints kernel."?
I thought the madwifi-ng modules were all open source. The madwifi-ng
package version is the latest until now (0.9.2.1).
I don't know what else I can do. From what I know, it should be
working but mystical forces are haunting my network.
I would appreciate any help.

I found more strange things about my problem. I think I'm getting closer: arp -n in the Gentoo Station reports: 169.254.0.1 (incomplete) ath0 Where 169.254.0.1 is the address of the AP. tcpdump -vv -i ath0 arp: 20:50:21.984182 arp who-has 169.254.0.1 tell 169.254.0.3 While I'm pinging the AP, I got "truncated-arp" messages in the AP "tcpdump -vv ath0 arp" output. The Station machine just got two replies: 64 bytes from 169.254.0.1: icmp_seq=424 ttl=64 time=0.400 ms 64 bytes from 169.254.0.1: icmp_seq=426 ttl=64 time=2998 ms It seems like my problem has something to do with the "Signal Too Strong" http://madwifi.org/wiki/FAQ/SignalTooStrong issue. I will move the AP to a place far from the station. So far no one replied to this, but I will keep posting in the hope that my attempts to make this works helps someone in the future.
