RE: HSRP Not working

I don't know if this will work for you but if your wireless does not accept
multicast you can convert multicast to broadcast and then back to multicast on
your routers.

Just a thought.

Here is a sample.

"Look out for Wrap"

pcpt3/1cfmulti.htm#41833

If you do configure this, pay attention to the ports it has to orignate and
terminate on.

Just my 2 Cents.

Thanks
