Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Sender: linux-wireless-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: Hi, Using hostapd from git. I have the same thing happening with both wirelees-testing and linux-2.6.30-rc6 Scenario 1: eth0 bridged to wlan0_0. all traffic works with no problems. Ping and Lots of traffic between interfaces works fine. Scenario 2: eth0 bridged to wlan0_0 in one subnet. Then en eth1 I have another subnet, i route between subnets. I can ping between subnets to for a while. I can not copy a large file, iperf also fails. At some point hostapd stops sending beacons and ther is no traffic. It seems to respond to probe requests.
