SqueezeBox bridging

Does anyone else out there have a SqueezeBox that they use as a network bridge?

I'm having a problem with mine, and I've come to realize that it's not passing broadcast packets. Can anyone out there test theirs and see if they come to the same conclusion, please?

I just hooked up a laptop running Unix to the SqueezeBox's ethernet port, verified that outgoing traffic worked properly, then ran "tcpdump icmp" and then on the other side of the SqueezeBox had a computer ping the network broadcast address. The laptop should have received those packets, but didn't.

This seems to also affect ARP requests, which means that I can't initiate connections to computers behind the bridge, which is the big problem.

So it's a router instead of a bridge ?

No, it's supposed to bridge, and largely it does, it just fails to pass broadcast traffic.

Seems there's a bug in the firmware that makes it stop responding to broadcast traffic once it rekeys the WPA2 connection. Weird.
