Still no luck with CVS as of about 15 minutes ago...

Maybe something is wrong with my settings? I included current iwconfig
output from each WDS box below as well as startup settings which are applied
on bootup for each.




WDS1:

wlan0     IEEE 802.11b  ESSID:"WDS"
          Mode:Repeater  Frequency:2.462GHz  Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
          Bit Rate=2Mb/s   Tx-Power=24 dBm   Sensitivity=1/3
          Retry min limit:8   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Encryption key:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0
