Re-2: [Voyage-linux] bridging interfaces

[Kim-man "Punky" TSE]

Hi Jeff,

Still don't know what is your problem.  But I suggest you use my 
config.  And send the output of command "ipconfig" and "iwconfig"

Also take a look to you laptop's route table.

I run mac, and the gateway is 192.168.1.1.

Also disable the WEP first, to make sure it will not mesh you up.

Regards,
Punky
