Hallo,
I use KAMIKAZE (bleeding edge, r11272) on my asus 500gP (atheros wifi card) here.
I have configured it to work as a bridge to my home lan (interfaces eth0.0 and wifi0 bridged).
Everything works OK, but I have the following problem:
When I connect the AP to the home lan I see this output in the /var/log/messages at the home gateway (dnsmasq server).

AP asks for an IP address with two different MACs and obtained 172.16.0.48 IP address finally.
MAC addresses 00:1f:c6:60:dd:04 and 00:0b:6b:86:c0:4f correspond to the eth0.0 and wifi0 ifaces respectively.
After the leasetime (12h) AP asks again with one of the MACs (randomly?) - this time 00:1f:c6:60:dd:04.
This way it isn't possible to configure the dnsmasq server to serve the same address to this host
Is it possible to configure the dhclient on the AP to be bound to the specific iface of the bridge?
I tried to change the iface from lan to eth0.0 in (/etc/config/dhcp):
config dhcp
option interface eth0.0
but it didn't help...
