The cisco bridge operates in Half-duplex and that is why half-duplex. The Router is a Cisco 1751 with WIC-1ENET, which is connected to the Wireless Bridge. I checked with the "output Interpreter" on CCO and it said the collisions are more than 0.53 much higher than 0.1 normal rate. Here's the output of sh interfaces e 0/0
