Janina,
How are you doing the testing?  Do you have an IP address outside your 
OpenWRT-controlled network from which you are testing?  If not, I'd be happy 
to help from the outside

appreciate the thought, but routing is OK.

PS: The device where I'm trying to do all this is a Linksys WRT54gs
running OpenWRT. So, I've got all the great Linux tools natively on the
