Hello, I've finally gotten emulators/qemu to work with bridge/tap networking on FreeBSD-7.0-BETA1 i386 using bfe0: <Broadcom BCM4401-B0 Fast Ethernet> For reference, I used the tutorial listed at: http://forums.bsdnexus.com/viewtopic.php?id=1563 My issue is, however, that QEMU/bridge/tap does not work with my wireless NIC (ath0: <Atheros 5212>) The question, is there a work-around for this issue? My first thought was to bridge the loopback device. I tried adding the loopback device lo0 to the bridge (ifconfig bridge0 addm lo0 up) but that failed with an error (ifconfig: BRDGADD lo0: Invalid argument). Any help, pointers is much appreciated. -- Regards, Doug
