[Bridge] Re: re : atheros bridge problem

[Derek Ditch]

I'm not sure how this particular solution works for my arrangement.  I 
have two 10/100 ethernet interfaces on the local net and one atheros 
interface.  I understand the issues w/ the 802.11a/b/g/i protocols, but 
this particular solution sounds as if I want to bridge two networks 
that are separated by a network segment, like a VPN.  But I have all 
these interfaces on one machine that I want bridged.  Also, it appears 
as if the two ethernet interfaces aren't forwarding traffic to each 
other either.  I am currently attached to an access point that is 
directly connected to one ethernet interface.  I can ping and establish 
an HTTP connection to that AP.  I can also ping and establish 
connections with the linux gateway router/bridge.  I cannot, however, 
pass any IP traffic past the linux/router to the AP on the other end, 
unless I move to use that AP instead.  The linux router can access both 
access points and there is no problem with externally routed traffic.

Also, I was wondering, one of the AP's I have is the ASUS WL300g.  This 
is a linux based router/ap.  It bridges the wifi interface and the 
ethernet interface.  I was curious if anyone knew how this worked?

Thanks,
Derek

and solution at
http://www.mikrotik.com/Documentation/HowTo.html#How_bridge
if you want to use opensource linux distribution , not commersial one 
, only
change kind of tunneling protocol from eoip to tap (

if you dont understand something , feel free to mail me for detailed 
instructions
but , I am sure that that point of description will be enough
