RE: [smartBridges] AirBridge Firmware release 0.01.07

[sB Tech Support]

Title: Message

The newer version of airBridge can support multiple PCs, passing PPPoE (if using RASPPPoE client) and DHCP (some DHCP servers do not response to broadcast address in Offer Packet and this could be problem). If you can't get DHCP IP address, of course ping will fail. Send us the trace to [EMAIL PROTECTED] we help you to analyse on DHCP issue.

Our experience has been that 0.09.10 will allow PPPoE or DHCP, hotspots but only  with one MAC client.

The next version is SUPPOSED to allow multiple MAC addresses, but so far we have not been able to pass anything through it. PPPoE doesn't work, DHCP doesn't work, can't even ping the gateway. Flash it back to 0.09.10 and everything works fine. We have tried with 4 or 5 different radios over the last several months with the same results everytime. Last test was this morning with a brand new SB just in.
