[ale] Local IP Non-Pingable on LAN from different Class C

[Christopher R. Curzio]

Good afternoon, everyone. 

I have a bit of a problem. It's probably something completely silly that
I'm overlooking, but I can't figure it out.

I have a local network. The local network is augmented with 802.11b
wireless. Wireless devices have their ethernet info configured via DHCP
from the wired network. This all works fine and dandy. 

Wireless devices are set to use IPs in 192.168.1.0/24 assigned via DHCP.
Wired devices use 192.168.0.0/24 and are hard-set. Netmasks across the
board are 255.255.252.0. A Laptop connects to the network, and is assigned
192.168.1.200

Here's the problem. The laptop is able to contact (ping) every machine on
192.168.0.0/24 *EXCEPT* 192.168.0.4. Every machine on 192.168.0.0/24 *IS*
able to contact 192.168.0.4.

Since 192.168.0.4 acts as my gateway to the internet, that means all
machines that are in the 192.168.1.0/24 range are not able to access the
internet. 

(Interestingly enough, if I assign the laptop an IP in 192.168.0.0/24, it
works fine.)

One curious thing I noted, is that I saw the broadcast address is wrong on
this machine: (from ifconfig)

inet addr:192.168.0.4  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.252.0

All other machines report Bcast as 192.168.3.255. Anyone have any ideas?s
