Without WDS you'll need to bridge/tunnel at a different layer.

I have an existing AP that I have no control over (assume it doesn't
support WDS) sitting on a clinic LAN. I have a second LAN that I need
to bridge to the clinic LAN through a client wireless device. I had
done this about a year ago using vtun (via an 'ethernet' tunnel), but
then I had some control over the AP.
thanks,

hi,
i would like to bridge a wireless client to ethernet (in 8-CURRENT) -
the last bug in the if_bridge man page says this is a no-no.
the question is whether this could be worked around - don't need the
highest performance, so maybe netgraph or even a userland daemon would
work. i don't have any ability to do anything at the access point end
so some of the tunneling protocols are out
any thoughts are appreciated,
The man page is out of date; HEAD has WDS support now so you can bridge
traffic that's 4-address encapsulated. You might try to be more clear what
you're trying to setup.
