This explains my inability to perform bridging like I expected to.... >I've been told the "wi" driver can't do bridging. The Cisco/Aironet >"an" driver can. Patches were submitted so you can do this. They are >in the tree. If I want to turn a PC into a full-blown "access point", should I set wicontrol to peer to peer (3) or BSS (1) ? Secondly, should I turn on the "create BSS" (I am almost positive I should) - but this leads me to: thirdly, are the fixes that allow wi to "create BSS" also "in the tree" ? or does the man page warning that it does not work still valid ? (I was using 4.3-RELEASE, btw) thanks.
