Hi, i have this situation:
192.168.0.1 --- AP ********** FONERA ---- 192.168.0.2
Fonera has ip 192.168.0.201 and the link between AP and FONERA is a wifi..
i created every interface like ath0 in sta mode for have a simple client ...
Then i did this :
brctl addbr vekebridge
brctl addif vekebridge eth0
brctl addif vekebridge ath0
ifconfig vekebridge up
ifconfig vekebridge 192.168.0.201
i did also ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 and ifconfig ath0 0.0.0.0 for resetting the previosly got ip..
The problem is that if i try to ping everything over the wifi from the fonera i don't get back the answer... so i decided to build tcpdump on the fonera and connect a notebook to the same ap for having two tcpdump running...
I found that when i launch ping 192.168.0.1 from the fonera
the fonera the command "tcpdump -i ath0 arp" tells me that the fonera is sending out a request
but if i launch from my notebook "tcpdump -i eth1 arp" ( where eth1 is the interface connected on the same wifi of the fonera) i see that the fonera doesn't send any arp request over the wifi..
In conclusion fonera gets everything from the wifi but it is not putting anything on the wifi : GET but not SEND...
probably for a bridge problem... any suggestion for how to patch this?
