i am having this problem where the two pcs are in the same network can nt ping each other ( no firewall on both of the pcs)
route table on my router is:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.1.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0.0
192.168.1.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 wl0
xx.xxx.xx.0     *               255.255.254.0   U     0      0        0 eth0.1
default         xx.xxx.xxx.1    0.0.0.0         UG     0      0        0 eth0.1

if i do add the route to the 2 pcs then it will work.
the question is: is not suppose to have the 2 pcs in the same network ping each other without explicit route defined.?
what is the point i am missing here?

Hi,

I guess one pc is connected to a ethernet-port, and the other through wifi.
and it seems like you didn´t bridge your wifi-interface and your lan-interface.

you should bridge eth0.0 and wl0 (this is the default configuration in kamikaze)
or if you want to route you should use different subnets for wl0 and eth0.0

read documentation for more info

both of the pcs are connected to the router through wireless connection.
