    I hate to bring up dead posts, so excuse the bad practice, but I was googling around for some different things and this came up so I thought I'd give my final solution to the problem.

    There are two solutions, but one takes a little more money and it wasnt as convenient (rewiring and buying a hub). Ultimately I ended up doing a bit of both cause I wanted some increased functionality (I bought a web managed switch and put it on the .0.x subnet and moved all servers and high traffic devices there).

    Basically r4nd0m1z and everyone who said i just needed to add a new route was correct, I just didnt know how to do it at the time. That was basically my problem, I could ping from the inside out because all the routes were set up exactly as SirDice said but that means I can only go one way, not both (my IPCop had no idea where .1.x was because it didnt have a route for that, only that anything not .0.x was on the internet).

    Adding another NIC was the other option but I didnt feel like creating a whole other subnet at the time and buying a hub and what not (I bought the switch but thats besides the point )

    So my architecture looks like this now:
    Internet --> IPCop (.233.2)--> Switch --> (.233.x) Servers and Wireless AP (.1.2) --> (.1.x) wireless clients

    I ended up doing a bit of both, but if you're looking for the no money solution go with the route add posted by r4nd0m1z on your IPCop. Thats about it and thanks for all the suggestions guys, I really do love this forum
