AKICOLJ: Wireless bridges
Who's making wireless bridges these days? No, bridges, not just access points. I have two LANs and want to bridge them wirelessly. The wireless access point I bought last week is going back to the shop as it turns out to specifically not do client bridge mode; apparently dlink don't think this is a feature that anybody wants. It'll do bridging as an access point, but not as a client.
no subject
I could make my server - which runs Debian and serves DHCP and other things - into that client-side bridge by adding a wifi dongle, but I was minded to also use it for IP forwarding (single physical/bridged net, multiple subnets) so would rather have it as close to the uplink as possible.
