Hi, You're may be right but that still does not explain why I see those connections being "duplicated" on the setup I now use. Why do you think that WLAN bridged to the LAN is bad anyway? I did not want to connect the accesspoint to my LAN directly, so I bridged it with the LAN, that way I could fine tune the access WLAN clients got to the rest of the network. I thought it was a neat solution. It is just this strange effect: 17:44:43.807258 WLAN 190.186.83.92, port 2652 192.168.77.253, port 25 TCP 17:44:43.806507 WAN 190.186.83.92, port 2652 192.168.77.253, port 25 TCP And it happens with some connections, not all of them.
