Hi,

I'm trying to configure two Alix 2D3 in a WLAN 802.11g. Both machines have 
voyage 0.7.5 updated.

I'm having some troubles registering the managed machine to the network.
Not always the access point appears associated from iwconfig but even when it's 
associated I cannot ping the access point (Destination Host Unreachable). I've 
almost no experience and I'm a bit stuck here.

Can I use your help? Please, have a look to my configuration files below?

Many thanks
Davide

- The first machine (Alix1) is acting as Access Point in Master mode, thanks to 
hostapd.

my /etc/network/interfaces:

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
        hostapd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.wlan0.conf
        address 192.168.2.1
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 10.5.30.255

my hostapd configuration (/etc/hostapd/hostapd.wlan0.conf) is:

interface=wlan0
bridge=br0
driver=nl80211
logger_syslog=-1
logger_syslog_level=2
logger_stdout=-1
logger_stdout_level=2
debug=4
#dump_file=/tmp/hostapd.dump
#ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
#ctrl_interface_group=0
channel=2
hw_mode=g
macaddr_acl=0
auth_algs=1
eapol_key_index_workaround=0
eap_server=0
#wpa=3
ssid=MYnet
#wpa_psk=mypass
#wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
#wpa_pairwise=TKIP
#rsn_pairwise=CCMP
eapol_version=1
ignore_broadcast_ssid=0


- The second machine (Alix2) is in managed mode 

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
       address 192.168.2.2   
       netmask 255.255.255.0
       broadcast 192.168.2.255
       gateway 192.168.2.1
       up iwconfig wlan0 channel 2 essid Mynet mode managed




Both machine have the same WLAN card:

00:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. Atheros AR5001X+ 
Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
        Subsystem: Wistron NeWeb Corp. CM9 Wireless a/b/g MiniPCI Adapter
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 168, IRQ 9
        Memory at e00c0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
        Capabilities: [44] Power Management version 2
        Kernel driver in use: ath5k
