Re: NMap scanning from ethernet lan to wifi part

[Troy <troy () mountaintop org>]

Are you scanning the wifi net from behind the 2nd router?

If you want the network to be contiguous, you need to configure the wifi 
router to be in "Bridging" mode, so the DHCP/routing/etc is all done 
from the router with the PCs connected to it.   Otherwise, nmap is 
trying to see through 2 NATs, assuming default config on wireless 
router, in which case it will only report back the next router in the 
line.
