Hi,
I posted a message earlier but upon further experimentation, it seems
that enabling CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER is causing my wireless to stop
transmitting/receiving any TCP/IP traffic. I am able to associate with
an AP but not even ARP packets are going through so DHCP and anything
else are out of the question. Basically, I am dead in the water.
My purpose for enabling CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER is to enable ebtables so
I can do L2-NATing.
Is there some dependencies that have to be enabled simultaneously in the
kernel build to get ebtables working? I'd hope and think Kconfig would
apprise one of such dependencies.
The kernel version is 2.6.28.
iwconfig shows proper association:
# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11 ESSID:"insurrection54g"
Mode:Managed Channel:6 Access Point: 00:1A:70:EE:2C:6F
Bit Rate=48 Mb/s Tx-Power=0 dBm
RTS thr=2318 B Fragment thr=2318 B
Encryption key:off
The AP has been set to DHCP but I never get an IP:
# ifconfig
