+No, I don't set any fixed IPs in the subnets that use DHCP although I
+believe the wireless router would allow me to. Also the 192.168.3.x
+address changes. I get martian logs from other addresses in that subnet
+but they are always low numbers which makes me think they were actually
+assigned by the router, at least initially. I haven't had time to run
+tcpdump yet but my current theory is that the wireless router doesn't or
+can't NAT certain types of packets and those are triggering the kernel
+log messages. Or perhaps it's only NATing packets from a host with a
+valid DHCP lease and simply forwarding anything else that comes in.
