Last October a couple of messages - <http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=109151+0+archive/2001/freebsd-mobile/20011021.freebsd-mobile> and <http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=137312+0+archive/2001/freebsd-mobile/20011021.freebsd-mobile> - were posted to the "freebsd-mobile" mailing list, outlining a problem with the "wi" driver not receiving multicast in 'all-multicast-packets' mode. To quote: "The wi driver does not receive multicast packets when set to receive all multicast packets, ie. when running mrouted. Well that is except if I am turning on promiscuous mode" Has anyone looked into this problem at all since then? (I'd take a crack at this myself, except that I'm not a "wi" driver expert...) Ross.
