I recently tried to connect a Sun Ray wirelessly through a wireless
"gaming adapter", which the salesman assured me was a simple ethernet
bridge. Nevertheless, it would not work with the Sun Ray. If I
remember correctly, the Sun Ray would hang at code 21. The same setup
worked wirelessly with a traditional PC and wired with the Sun Ray...
but it would not work wirelessly with the Sun Ray.
I have had success connecting a Sun Ray wirelessly using a Linksys
router with OpenWRT.

I am using some wireless bridges
(Pheenet WAP 11) so that the ray thinks it is connected to a normal

guess the tftp boot forwarding is the issue but on the bridges in
question there appears to be no option to enable bootp.
If these are bridges then they should just blindly forward all
frames. Bridges don't know or care about BOOTP or TFTP or anything
else above the link layer. If the Sun Ray boots when it's plugged
into the wire at the far (server) end of the wireless link then it
should boot when it's plugged into the bridge. (I'm assuming that
the Sun Ray traffic isn't being blocked by some sort of access
control or filtering.)
What does the Sun Ray show in the bottom right corner of its
on-screen startup icon, and what does a 'snoop' capture of the
traffic on the server's interface to this subnet show?
