[Gllug] Wireless not playing nicely with bridge

[Stephen Nelson-Smith]

Hello,

I'm having problems getting my wireless setup to play nicely with an
ethernet bridge.

Without a bridge it works fine:

$ sudo cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback


iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
	wireless-essid unsecured
	address 10.0.0.110
	netmask 255.255.255.0
	gateway 10.0.0.138

I create a bridge, and I can't route packets:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

auto eth1

iface eth1 inet static
	wireless-essid unsecured

auto br0
iface br0 inet static
	address 10.0.0.110
	network 10.0.0.1
	netmask 255.255.255.0
	broadcast 10.0.0.255
	gateway 10.0.0.138
	bridge_ports all

The wired interface works fine with the bridge in place, as do tun/tap
interfaces.

What am I missing?

S.
