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?
