Okay, so what you are saying is

eth0 has a auto ip, and br0 is set to manual or auto? When br0 is on auto it
gets the same ip as eth0.

Sorry Im just a bit confused on how to approach this, maybe you can give
some pointers?

Basically, for some reason, when i create a bridge br0 based on eth0, my
whole internet connection wants to route through br0 instead of eth0, so
therefore i cannot control this.
