Hi, all

Some background Info:

    Dell 8600 with a Broadcom 802.11b/g Mini PCI Card
    Ndiswrapper using Win XP Driver
    WPA_Supplicant for WPA-AES Support


The problem:

    My network is up and running i.e my WiFi card connets to the AP.
    But at first I cannot go anywhere on the internet or local network (i.e. mounting shares).
    After leaving my laptop doing nothing for a bout 3 min I can browse the internet (i.e www.gentoo.org and ping web sites) but for some unknown reason I cannot browse the local net work.


IP Listing
    Laptop [eth0] = 192.168.100.105
    Laptop [wlan0] = 192.168.100.103
    Desktop = 192.168.100.100
    Router (i.e Gateway) = 192.168.100.99


[Edit] eth0 has been taken down to work on wlan0 so it not conflicting

Is eth0 really down and the code-posts are old?

(/etc/init.d/net.eth0 stop)

Can you ping the laptop from the desktop pc?
