The dumps I've pasted were on both gws and I don't really see it
going through, I only saw the broadcast but never any kind of answer to
it or coming out on the other side, so there still might be an issue.

I didn't paste the log options from the conf, they're at the top, but
you're right, I should have enabled debugging as well to get a better
view.

Care to elaborate why? I do trust that you will know better.
