WLAN -> LAN Bridge + DHCP Server not working
-
Using the final 1.2 release.
When I bridge WLAN (opt1) with LAN my client don't get an IP from the LAN DHCP server. 192.168.0.0/24 network
When I don't bridge and set up a seperate network (192.168.1.0/24) and run a DHCP server on the WLAN interface it does work.But I wan't to use a bridge. Any ideas?

I have this exact setup working.
Did you bridge on both interfaces the other interface? (this is wrong)
Did you create a rule on OPT that allows traffic?
Did you set an IP for the OPT-interface? (this is wrong too) -
I did the following:
On WLAN (OPT1):
Bridge with: LAN
Standard: 802.11g
Mode: Access Point
SSID: SkyNet2
Enable WPA: Checked and entered a keyI added a rules on the WLAN interface, any to any (all *'s).

When I managed to figure out what the problem was, and it's not pfsense 8)
My nokia N810 uses wifi power saving which it set to maximum by default. There is a know issue with connecting to Atheros based wifi cards. Setting the power saving to intermediate solved the problem.
I also have a Fonera, which has the same Atheros chipset as my wifi card in my pfsense firewall, and it too has the same problems.
