Bogus Network Connection?, Zaurus Connects - but doesn't? Options

[Jacknife]

I'm able to connect to my WAP with 100% signal strength/quality, but am not able to see the Zaurus from my network nor the network from my Zaurus. I've never seen an issue like this before, and I'm kind of at a loss. I'm hoping that someone has seen this type of issue before and found a way to fix it.

Anyway, here's some network configuration dumps from both my Zaurus and Linux desktop:

I know that at least my WAP can see the Zaurus connecting, because there is an entry in the logs with the connect time and MAC addresss. Despite this fact, I'm not able to ping the WAP from my Zaurus.

have you locked down the wlan AP to specific ethernet MAC addresses?

check the settings; this could account.

also, have you turned on firewalling on zaurus? do "iptables -L -v".
