+The problem with that is that the firewall rules on these boxes
+immediately log and drop any packet that doesn't come from the subnet
+assigned to that interface. I'm not an expert on iptables but I believe
+that anything coming in on those interfaces would hit iptables and be
+dropped before the kernel log. Even if the kernel saw them first I
+should still see corresponding iptables log entries. The router boxes
+don't have any wireless cards so they aren't generating these entries
+that way. I don't know how a wireless host connecting to a wireless
+router, which has a wired LAN IP on LAN facing interface and uses DHCP
+for the wireless interface, is able to propagate a different IP address
+all the way to the firewall without being translated or dropped. Very
+curious.
