It receives its own neighbour solicitation (multicast) packets when the AP sends them back out again. These packets... 23:41:56.046939 00:0a:95:f3:99:92 > 33:33:ff:f3:99:92, ethertype IPv6 (0x86dd), length 78: :: > ff02::1:fff3:9992: ICMP6, neighbor solicitation, who has fe80::20a:95ff:fef3:9992, length 24 You should be able to see this without _any_ IPv6 infrastructure -- and you'll see the link-local IPv6 address remains 'tentative'. Once you've fixed that, setting up a local route advertisement dæmon (radvd) to give you site-local addresses is fairly trivial too -- and then you can also check that Ethernet multicast is working properly. -- dwmw2 _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
