Hi Lajos,
 Thanks for responding so fast. I did try adding the forward rule, but
still packets are missing.
 Let me give you more insight into what I am trying do.
 I have a vitrual network interface and 2 physical network interface (one
Ethernet based, and other 802.11 based). The virtual network interface
dynamically binds to any one of the above physical interfaces for packet
transmission. The issue of packet loss occurs **only** during link
switching.
What is this "link switching" in real ? What about routing and source addresses ?
I feel that the following issues might be the possible reasons for the
packet loss.

1. Due to missing soft_IRQ interrupt for packets and hence packet loss ( i
have no proof to back this)
2. Due to incompatible wireless device driver.


Any thoughts on this ?
What if you use a bridge on those three and the condition extension of iptables?

Swifty
