Speaking about VPC/2.
I also heard on WarpStock that the VPC network switch can not be used on WiFi connections because the WiFi drivers do not support snooping.
Is there any way to rectify that with GenMAC?

You don't say whether you are using GenMac and the T42p's builtin mini-PCI
wireless card, but since that is the case here (GenMac 1.7 and an Intel
2200bg on a T42p) and I have the exact same problem I assume that is what
you are talking about.

If that is the case, have you reported this on the GenMac support list (
http://news.gmane.org/gmane.org.netlabs.genmac.user )? If not please do.
I have spoken with Christian about the problem and he said it is not an
error in WLAN but in how GenMac reports the active ip adapter. In my case
it is because I use the VPC/2 network driver. I have reported it on the
GenMac list but never had a repsonse.
