thats because almost every access point in client mode doesnt send the client( pc) mac address over wireless, only his mac address , like routers proxy arp..

what u should to to fix it is to set both radios in wds mode so that way they can send the PC mac address to the otherside instead of the ap2 mac.

i hope thats help
