I wrote this howto to help those who needs a wireless client bridge mode under kamikaze, something like wet mode in whiterussian.
I had problems bridging Atheros AR5414 miniPCI and ADM5120 Ethernet port0; and this solved.
Hope this helps!

I would like to add:
"This daemon can be used for unicast traffic only. I.e., DHCP is not supported. Use software such as dhcrelay to "bridge" DHCP."

(from parprouted man page)

The only problem with parprouted is that it cannot pass multiple ranges of ip addresses. Only one subnet can pass through it.

It should work quite well for a home wlan. Any news about "wet" support in kamikaze???

AraKs,

Great works better than dd-wrt. I have connected multiple pc's to the lan side and all are accessible. Who cares about multiple subnets. Multiple ip addr works great. I am using bcrelay for dhcp on the wired side. kamikaze 8.09. :-)

Thanks.

Hur, I really appreciate your feedback. I'm happy that my work helped someone else. smile

The discussion might have continued from here.
