Dear All,

Sorry. My bad, turns out the situation at my office was not what I 
thought it was. What we have instead is this Network situation:

Ethernet LAN
 |
 |
 |--Monowall 1- (DHCP)
 |
 |--Monowall 2- (DHCP)
 |

With regular Ethernet cards on the WAN side of both MW and WiFi cards on 
the LAN side.

What I thought I had

Ethernet LAN
|
|
|--MW1--| (DHCP)
                |
                |
|--MW2--|
|
|
Ethernet LAN

IS NOT TRUE. Sorry for the confusion Anthony.

cheers,
Kenman
