And does the wireless ethernet have any other connectivity back into the
network? e.g. is the base station wired into the local hub?

The message is basically saying "I sent an ARP request for 192.168.1.34 out
of interface ed0. However I saw the response come in on ed1 !"

So it looks like there is some layer 2 bridging between those two networks
somewhere, since a broadcast packet has passed from one network to the
other.
