yes, but you need to have gateway there (a router) that must be the same subnet. If the Linux box is the same subnet with all of other radio, there is no need to have a gateway to make ping work, so the primary port setting, this is actually setting for where the default gateway is located, that my suspect not correctly setting up, will give same result(ignored), because you don't need gateway to ping a host at the same subnet (in other word, no gateway needed, the radio just respond to mac addr). regards, Jonathan The PART-15.ORG smartBridges Discussion List To Join: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (in the body type subscribe smartBridges <yournickname> To Remove: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (in the body type unsubscribe smartBridges) Archives: http://archives.part-15.org
