Probably they might be using 0.09.10 firmware (Single MAC) on the airbridge. With the newer firmware (0.01.04 onwards) loaded on the aB, the PCs will not be able to get to internet. This is correct symptom as the aB does Mac translation causing this design unsuitable for routing. It can only work between the site to site connectivity.
To workaround this problem, you can downgrade the aB to older firmware 0.09.10, and this will become transparent bridge with single Mac support. The aB is connected directly to the router/firewall so it can only see the router/firewall as single client. In order install the old firmware 0.09.10, please install the simpleMonitor 1.43 which is included with 0.09.10. http://www.smartbridges.com/new/support/ab.php Thank you Kind regards, Seeni sB Tech support -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rick Kunze Sent: Friday, October 31, 2003 10:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [smartBridges] ABO and firewalls I've got many other customers running this exact same setup.
