	It seems the proxy ARP feature is activated for wrong route.
See the following URL and try to differentiate your devices by the
medium they are attached to. Then your router will know that the
target host can see the broadcast probes and will not reply for them.
For this to work, you need correct routes. The problem can be that
the proxy_arp feature does not know that two devices are attached
to same medium and the ARP reply should not be generated.

As I can't fully understand your settings, if you have some questions,
please provide some settings. And of course, the main thing: how
many distinct mediums you have. Read medium_id.txt for more
information.
