[Dnsmasq-discuss] no address range available for DHCP request via wlan0

[Brent S. Elmer, Ph.D.]

I am trying to use dnsmasq to assign DHCP addresses for a wireless
access point.  I keep getting the message above when it is trying to
give out an address.  My computer that is running dnsmasq is connected
to the internet via wired ethernet on eth0 to a DSL modem and gets an
address via DHCP.  I have a wireless card on wlan0 that is set up to be
an access point.  Obviously I am doing something wrong.  Any help would
be appreciated.

The DHCP settings on the DSL router are:
Begginning IP address: 192.168.1.64
Ending IP address: 192.168.1.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

The dnsmasq.conf settings are:
filterwin2k
domain=theElmers.org
local=/localnet/
interface=wlan0
dhcp-range=192.168.0.50,192.168.0.150,255.255.255.0,12h

Thanks,
Brent
