Ok, I made it myself a little easier by temporarly switching from WPA2 
to unsecure wireless networking.

I'm having the following configuration:

Code:

to lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet manual

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
wireless-essid ##MY-ESSID##
wireless-mode managed

auto br0
iface br0 inet dhcp
bridge_ports eth0, eth1

When I reboot, my interfaces are getting the following config:

Code:

The bridge looks ok:

Code:

jochus@Bacardi ~ $ sudo brctl show br0
[sudo] password for jochus: 
bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
br0             8000.000ae4ae7e4c       no              eth0
                                                        eth1

My routing table looks like this:

Code:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.1.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth1
169.254.0.0     0.0.0.0         255.255.0.0     U     0      0        0 br0
0.0.0.0         192.168.1.1     0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth1
0.0.0.0         0.0.0.0         0.0.0.0         U     1000   0        0 br0

But I'm not able to ping my router ...

Code:

PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
>From 192.168.1.111 icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable
>From 192.168.1.111 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
>From 192.168.1.111 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable

--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 0 received, +3 errors, 100% packet loss, time 4018ms

I don't understand why eth1 is in my routing table. It shouldn't be I guess?
Anybody some idea's?
