I noticed that your IP addresses are .20 and .22 respectively which given the pool starting address would suggest they've been set manually. Try editing /etc/network/interfaces to : # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp For the laptop wifi it will probably be eth1 Make sure dhcp3-client is installed on both.
