Craig,
This is currently my situation. I have a linksys router that has both wired
ports on the back and serves as a wireless access point. I'll continue to
play with this to see if I can get it to work.
What I don't fully understand is why when I use the wireless connection I
can surf the internet, send mail, IM, but I cannot connect to my SMB/NFS
server, which is no problem on the wired connection.
I can also ping the NFS server using the wireless connection. It just gives
an RPC error when I attempt to mount a share.
