Mine /etc/network/interfaces looks as:

[code]
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# Internet on eth0 to my ISP through cable modem
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

# LAN on eth1 - this is my wired home network
allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet static
    address 192.168.10.1
    netmask 255.255.255.0

# WiFi - this should be my home WLAN
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual

auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0 wlan0
[/code]

So maybe the wlan0 is not properly configured?
