I've now configured the the clients as such: client 172.16.0.0/16 { secret = testing123 shortname = belkin-at-garvin } The IP address of the network card on my Windows machine is 172.16.1.1. While the corresponding value for the Access point is 172.16.1.2. Subnet masks in both cases is 255.255.0.0 However, still no sign of traffic destined for the Radius server.

Make a /30 network in a different private IP range. Or you can switch on Internet Connection sharing on XP, NIC wil be fixed to 192.168.0.1 and it will behave like a mini-router (DHCP etc.). Just fix the IP address on AP (so you have a single address in clients.conf) and leave the rest on automatic.

I've changed the client declaration thus so that the CIDR matches the subnet mask for a Class B IP address:

client 169.254.188.217/16 { secret = testing123 shortname = belkin-at-garvin }

But it still doesn't work.

Is this what was meant or is it the 169.254.0.0 network number that is at fault?

Your AP IP address is from Automatic Private IP Addressing range. Routing is not going to work there. Make a "proper" /30 network between AP and the PC.

I have a tiny test network consisting of a Belkin Wireless Access Point (FCC: K7SF5D7132A) connected by an ethernet cable to a Windows machine with an Intel network card.

I'm running FreeRADIUS.net-1.1.5-r0.0.3 and configure the client thus:

client 169.254.188.217 { secret = testing123 shortname = belkin-at-garvin }

When I connect to the AP I can see packets getting through to the network card using ethereal but nothing appears in the radius.log.

When I disconnect from the AP the device's MAC still appears in the AP's list and it is reported as being Authenticated!

Can anyone tell me what I have missed in the configuration?

Garvin.
