> We wouldn't need hwaddress anymore with the new patch, right? Nope, I have found another problem with the kind of setup that you have, on this setups brctl addif fails because the interface needs to be configured by hostapd, and as the code for setting the mac was conditionally tight to the brctl it would not be executed. I have moved it before the brctl addif so that it will be executed no matter what. This is on a patch attached to this bug. That should hopefully solve the final problem with mac setting.
> iface br0 inet dhcp > bridge_hw enp4s0MAC > bridge_ports regex (en|wl).* > post-up ifup /wl* > iface br0 inet6 auto > privext 2 > > iface enp3s0 inet manual > iface enp4s0 inet manual these two iface enp* lines shouldn't be needed at all, the regex on bridge ports should catch them and bridge-utils should configure the ports. Like I said before I'd add the bridge_ports to the inet6 definition as well, the full patch to fix this two definitions will need that info for everything to run ok. If you can add the attached patch and test everything it would be great. Regards... -- Manty/BestiaTester -> http://manty.net
