There is no ping, but arping work

Hello,

I have a problem with one wireless controller (Netgear). Today I reboot it and now ping from gateway to controller, do not work (gateway is FreeBSD 7.0) but arping works.

Code:
#ping 192.168.5.21
PING 192.168.5.21 (192.168.5.21): 56 data bytes
^C
--- 192.168.5.21 ping statistics ---

#arping 192.168.5.21

If I run ping from my local PC (Windows XP - 192.168.5.15), all is OK.

There is no new settings in gate and wireless controller.Just reboot controller and he disappear.
Here is dcpdump log:

Firewall on the FreeBSD machine preventing ICMP?

Nop, I have rule:

Code:
00006 allow icmp from any to any

Now I add 192.168.5.21 with num. 63

Code:
#ipfw list |grep icmp
00006 allow icmp from any to any

# ipfw list |grep 192.168.5.21
00063 allow ip from 192.168.5.21 to any
00063 allow ip from any to 192.168.5.21

but nothing happend :(
 
Ok, can you post the ifconfig output and the output from # netstat -rnf inet
 
Here is small part:

Code:
#ifconfig

Please post the output from commands with [code] tags. See [thread=8816]Posting and Editing in the FreeBSD Forums I: proper formatting[/thread]

Ok, looking at that output, combined with the tcpdump you posted earlier, it looks like the problem is with the netgear wireless controller, not your FreeBSD machine.
 
Yea, but I can ping it from another machines from my local network.Like:

Code:
# ifconfig  re0
re0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500

I try to reboot wireless controller, but same sh*t.There is no ping from gateway.
 
Instead of rebooting it ad infinitum, you could have a look at it's settings.

The reported netmask 0xfffffc00 = 255.255.252.0 does not correspond to the reported broadcast address. With the given netmask, the network is 192.168.4.0/22 and the broadcast should be 192.168.7.255. However, I am not sure if this inconsistency is a part of your problem.

Best regards

Yea, may be because I changed the real IPs for the post (sorry for this) :)
But there is no change since the restart until now on both boxes.
