This is because the broadcom wireless card needs the "nas"-daemon for wpa encryption. The nas daemon needs to know the interface of your wlan interface, but in a bridge setup this is br0 and not the normal eth2 interface. Because the bridge must be up before the nas-daemon can be started, the "ifup br0" is taking care of starting nas when your wlan interface is bridged. That's why "ifdown eth2 ; ifup eth2" isn't working as expected. But what about this solution for your problem: Just remove the eth2 interface from the bridge and readd it when it's needed again. "brctl delif br0 eth2" and "brctl addif br0 eth2" should do the trick (but I haven't tested that). --Ralph > Best regards > > Jan _______________________________________________ freewrt-users mailing list [email protected] https://www.freewrt.org/lists/listinfo/freewrt-users
