Maybe I just need sleep. I figured out the mac address filtering, but apparently I didn't turn off the ssid on the other router. turning it off and my network is once again invisible to all the nodes. <BR>
<BR>
My setup works fine with the ssid being broadcast. Can anyone else verify this? or tell me how to make it work with hidden ssid's?<BR>
<BR>
port 698 is being forwarded, I don't think it would work with the ssid's being turned on otherwise, and yep both nodes are using the same broadcast address, at least according to ifconfig.<BR>

<FONT COLOR="#000000">hrmmm, apparently I was just dumb the first time because it works now. How about mac address filtering with openwrt? I've put in the mac's of the routers I want to be able to communicate and select "allow" for them. I can ping the wireless interfaces but nothing seems to be propagating across to the wired network. Anyone got any ideas on that? This too was working fine before I turned on the mac filters :-)</FONT><BR>
