I have two subnets, my server lan and my wireless lan. The reason I am running a different subnet on the wireless LAN is because I have a linux box routeing between the two, and I lack the patence for bridging. I found a solution but it makes no sense. I installed dhcrelay on the router and then installed a dummy DHCP server on it. Now the real dhcpserver answers the requests correctly. What I fail to understand is why... I am happy that it works but I am concenred that if it breaks I am screwed.
