[LARTC] routing problem with multiple connections

[terrylr@blauedonau.com]

hello;

here is the problem.

i have a laptop running linux-2.4.3 with three wireless
ethernet cards installed and an actual ethernet card
acting as a router.

eth0 connects to the wired ethernet in my home.

eth1 connects to the first orinoco card which is
the local wireless cell this is in home use.

eth2 connects to the second orinoco card which has
and 24dbi gain parabolic directional antennea and
will eventually be a 512mbs connection to the internet.

eth3 connects to the third orinoco card which has
an external antennea so i am able to sit outside and
work on the computers.

any computers on the wired ethernet are able to ping
the laptop router but are unable to ping any wireless
computer.

any computer on the local in home wireless are able
to ping the laptop router but are unable to ping
any computer on the wired ethernet.

any computer on the wireless networks with external
antennea is able to ping any other wireless computers
and the laptop router but unable to ping the wired
ethernet computers.

the ip numbers are valid internet numbers. it is
my legacy class c ip range. there are no subnets.

all wireless cards are in ad-hoc mode with 128bit
encryption enabled.

i am trying to route any wireless computer to the
wired ethernet.

i am trying to route the wired ethernet to eth2
as internet default gateway.

what am i missing?
