i fixed the problem it was a bad iptables rule! lol. thanks for all the help i added a DROP rule w00ps!

Im well aware of how iptables works and do have it configured correctly. And forwarding is enable in /proc/sys/net... i have read every gentoo tutorial due to networking/routing.my rules which worked fine before with only one interface also work fine for the bridge.but you are incorrect, but i have ...

i did enable forwarding on the bridge everything works find, but the wireless and wired lans cannot talk to eachother unless i disable iptables. but if i do that i lose nat and my firewall! lol

sure, ive also forgot to mention a few things.
1) i have 2 lans one wired, one wireless. wired=eth0 wireless=wlan0
2)the wan is eth1
3)i have dhcp and dns working on eth0 & wlan0 as they are a bridge.
4)i found out that i cant use iptables for the bridge. if i stop iptables they 2 lans can talk.im ...

ev0lt0p src # wpa_supplicant -dd -ieth1 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dwext
Initializing interface 'eth1' conf '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' driver 'wext'
Configuration file '/etc/wpa_supplicant ...

I did that used wext (im guessing that means wireless extensions) and it gave less errors but it still will not associate with the ap.why is this so hard to set up?

I am not using the generic forcedeth module at all.so no it isnt compiled in it is a module.lsmod shows the correct driver nvnet is loaded./etc/init.d/net.eth0 start gives no errors with a static ip,but if i try dhcp it wont associate ...

i have the same problem i posted it earlier mine compiles, well i have kernel-2.6.13-r1 but i get the same ioctl error when trying to use wpa_supplicant
