Did you try 'ifconfig athn0 up'? Or likewise a line saying 'up' in /etc/hostname.athn0? vether and bridge are indeed the way to go. I'm running a setup like this and it works. This example should give you a working configuration (assuming vr0 is your LAN interface): # cat /etc/hostname.athn0 nwid mynetwork wpakey 'mypassword' media autoselect mode 11g mediaopt hostap chan 11 up # cat /etc/hostname.vether0 inet 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 NONE up # cat /etc/hostname.vr0 up # cat /etc/hostname.bridge0 add vether0 add vr0 add athn0 up
