Gerald,

Did you try the ping command?

Martin,

I am hoping to hear back from you about this soon.
This is on the path to our deployment in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks.

Martin,

Thanks.

I am using version 0.6d5. And I followed the standard installation procedures. Our tech guy set up a VLAN which includes the APs, which point to the XS ("my box") as the DHCP server.

I didn't get to try the ping command you suggested. I will do so on Monday.

Is there anything else I can do?

Thanks.
Gerald

Good!

 - What version of the XS?

 - Did you follow the standard installation procedures?

 - What happens if you do ...?
  ping -c1 `hostname -f`

good

The AP has to be running as an AP, _not_ as a router (so it does not
need to "point" anywhere). Just connect the AP to eth1

Probably the AP is trying to act as a router instead of as an AP. Make
sure you disable all routing features.

What is "my box"? The XS _must_ be the local dhcp server. The XS must
be local, not remote. There must be no "box" between the XS and the
XOs.

cheers,
