openflow and openwrt with wireless

Hi,


I have a simple setup and I am trying to enable wireless between the two switches. 
My topology is like below with the controller connected directly to the switches.

PC1---Switch1 === Switch2---PC2

I have 2 TP-LINK WR1043ND devices and I have configured them, following the instructions in 

When I try to ping PC2 from PC1, I observe an ARP request from PC1 and an ARP reply from PC2.
However, PC1 doesn't receive the ARP reply and the controller does not receive a PacketIn from PC2.

Are there additional configurations needed to make wireless work?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Hi,

What version is your TP-Link boxes? Check that you use the right
firmware binary (v1.8 requires a new one..)
