              @ermal:

              Can you paste those errors here.

              i simply submitted that and then it deleted the crash report after which i reverted to the previous working snapshot. u would be having access to the place where this crash report got submitted i guess

                Just tried the Jan 24 07:37:42 build, but same thing is happening. I found a workaround that maybe can help troubleshoot this issue.

                After restoring my backup and rebooting I have this setup for the interface:

                WAN (wan)       -> vr1        -> v4/DHCP4: XX.XX.XX.161/23
                BRIDGE (lan)    -> bridge0    -> v4: 192.168.1.1/24
                GUEST (opt1)    -> vr2        -> v4: 10.10.10.1/24
                LAN (opt2)      -> vr0        ->
                WLAN (opt3)     -> run0_wlan0 ->

                with OPT2 and OPT3 bridged in bridge0 and nothing is working. However if in the serial console I choose option #2 and assign an IP address to LAN (opt2) like this:

                WAN (wan)       -> vr1        -> v4/DHCP4: XX.XX.XX.161/23
                BRIDGE (lan)    -> bridge0    -> v4: 192.168.1.1/24
                GUEST (opt1)    -> vr2        -> v4: 10.10.10.1/24
                LAN (opt2)      -> vr0        -> v4: 192.168.1.2/24
                WLAN (opt3)     -> run0_wlan0 ->

                then everything starts working again!

                UPDATE:
                Not sure what happened overnight, but this morning it didn't work again (it was fine yesterday evening after the workaround) so I had to do another factory reset.

                    Hello
                    I too have the same problem.
                    Until the version built on Tue Jan 22 17:56:08 EST 2013
                    Everything works fine, no longer works after the bridge.
                    My setup only bridge Wan-Lan Ip Wan With the gateway.
                    Use public IP, I do not need it use the NAT only firewall packet filtering, it will not work the Traffic Shaper.
                    Thank you.

                            still doesnt work but i guess its something to do with dhcp and the bridge as my wireless devices remain on obtaining ip address but never gets one

                              I use manual IP addresses but should not be the same, I have changed something.

                                No it's not just dhcp that breaks. Even with static ip's nothing works with bridges interfaces.

                                          I can also confirm that Jan 27 build fixed the problem. Well done!

                                            Thank you for testing.
                                            Strange this was not hit before!
