Hello,

I've tried the captive portal with m0n0wall 1.11
at work, and 1.2b3 at home. Both seem to give the
same behavior:

MAC pass-through doesn't seem to work as expected.

For example, in both locations I have an 802.11b
access point attached directly to my OPT1 (re-named
WLAN) interface. If I enable Captive Portal and
add the access point's MAC address then I cannot
ping the access point's IP. However, if I add the
access point's IP then I *can* ping it. Similarly,
if I disable Captive Portal then I can ping it.

I've double checked both access point's MAC addresses.

NOTE: I don't think MAC pass-through is completely
broken, as I have two laptop clients at work that
have listed MACs and are not required to authenticate.

Has anyone experienced this before?
