Hi All, We're attempting to replace all the Engenius CB3s and various Airports and AP3s in our backbone with WRAP boards running pebble linux with 200 mW senao cards. We've got the host AP config bridging to the ethernet interface just fine. What we have not been able to get running is a WRAP board functioning as a wireless bridge with the radio as a client of an upstream AP -- that is hostap in managed mode. I found this thread on the hostap discussion board, but it seems to lead to a dead end. http://hostap.epitest.fi/hostap/2002-09/1825.html The statement "But still, a WLAN card in "Managed" mode can't be bridged." doesn't ring completely true to me, since the WEP11 from linksys and the CB3 from senao/engenius do this with prism based radio cards. I've found other online discussions that mention layer 2 bridging, but that's what we have running with hostap, but it doesn't work when the wireless interface is a client of another AP. Is there a set of drivers other than hostap that we should be using or do we need to do somethings with ebtables to set up MAC-NAT?
