I am trying to Bridge a network connection between a
wireless nic which connects to a router and a wired nic,
which would connect to a switch to provide network and
internet connectivity to multiple pc's. Unfortunately it
seems this can only be done in the other direction, wired
to an internet connection and the wireless nic re-
broadcasts to other devices in Ad-Hoc mode. If anyone
has figured out a way to do what I am trying, please
share, I am hoping to do it without getting a wireless
network bridge to connect to the switch.
