I've tried to start bootpd in debug mode but that isn't enough to create a managed network. And if the driver program /usr/libexec/ InternetSharing has a debug mode it isn't documented. And if there's a way to enable debugging by setting a flag in its preference file (/Library/Preferences/ SystemConfiguration/com.apple.nat.plist) it's also not documented:-( -- Jack Jansen, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.cwi.nl/~jack If I can't dance I don't want to be part of your revolution -- Emma Goldman smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

If the Powerbook created the WLAN, does it run in ad-hoc or managed (access point) mode (e.g. the WLAN icon in the 770 is set according to the WLAN mode)?

HTH, good luck, let me know if you need some more testing. Sebastian ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

If I manually assign IP, DNS etc the 770 can use the connection just fine. Ok . P.S. 00:14:a7:fa:87:e5 should be my N770. The 770 continues to send DHCP requests frequently even after it connected using a link-local connection. Yes, it is supposed to do that. As tcpdump shows, requests are sent but no replies are heard.
