Does... HostAP(AP)-to-HostAP(Client) setup work?

[Martin Whitlock]

Hi,

I am trying to debug this right now. Here comes a long shot in the dark...
Do you happen to have some kind of tunneling support in your kernel? Because
I recently reconfigured my kernel with IPGRE support, and now when I went
back to my old kernel, it seems to work fine. I have attached a diff between
the two kernels. Take a look at it and see if you have anything of this
configured in yours.
