Support for bridge? #26

Open sateuwdie opened 3 months ago

sateuwdie commented 3 months ago

Usually when a wlan don't support bridge the commands return a similar error.

brctl addif br0 wlan1
can't add wlan1 to bridge br0: Operation not supported

this driver seems to support bridge, I have tried this script

MAC1="I:USED:THE:WLAN:MAC"
nmcli con del br0
nmcli con add ifname br0 type bridge con-name br0 bridge.mac-address $MAC1
nmcli con add type bridge-slave ifname wlan0 master br0
nmcli con down br0
nmcli con up br0

and works, the br0 is up, and I can ping (only internal!) with brtctl works fine also.

brctl addbr br0
brctl addif br0 wlan1

I used the same wlan mac because my HOSTAP has mac filter active so using a fake mac means no access.

Now the problems

dhcp-client on br0 FAIL TIMEOUT manual ip configuration (add addr, add route...) works but don't ping external addr

My question is..I have miss something?This driver support bridge? Thanks
