Wireless bridge setup question

Hello all,

I'm trying and, so far, failing, to get a wireless bridge setup working.

The setup is based on that in the FAQ:

http://openbsd.org/faq/faq6.html#Bridge

with these details on Box0:

/etc/hostname.rtw0:
dhcp NONE NONE NONE nwid MYSSID

/etc/hostname.fxp0:
up media autoselect

/etc/bridgename.bridge0:
add rtw0
add fxp0
up

Now rtw0 associates and gets an IP address (currently 192.168.1.19), and /
etc/resolv.conf is correctly generated, so from Box0 I can ping my
upstream router/DHCP server (on 192.168.1.1) and also access the rest of
the Internet.

From Box1 connected by wire to fxp0 I can ping 192.168.1.19, but not
192.168.1.1, and so Box1 does not acquire an IP address.

The FAQ seems straightforward on the subject, but following it has not
brought me total success yet, and googling for "openbsd how to setup
wireless bridge" has brought me little enlightenment.

I obviously have something wrong, so hints, suggestions, insults,
brickbats, clues, aspersions, and pointers to what I'm missing would
(mostly) be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Mark
