[Voyage-linux] Bridge Driving Me Bonkers

I am trying to make a basic bridge between eth0 and wlan0. When I ssh
into the box I can ping both the Internet at large (wlan0 faces
Internet) and of course the device that I used to ssh in with (connected
to eth0).
However when I try from the computer sitting behind the wrap to ping the
Internet I can't get through. Seems to be "stuck" at the bridge. Any
suggestions?
Here is my interfaces file:
# Used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8). See the interfaces(5) manpage or
# /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples for more information.
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
address 192.168.254.13
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.254.0
broadcast 192.168.254.255
gateway 192.168.254.1
bridge_ports eth0 wlan0
pre-up ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 up
pre-up ifconfig wlan0 0.0.0.0 up
pre-up iwconfig wlan0 essid hotspot2 mode managed rate 1M
#pre-up iwconfig wlan0 123456789012
pre-up brctl addbr br0
pre-up brctl addif br0 eth0
pre-up brctl addif br0 wlan0
post-down ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 down
post-down ifconfig wlan0 0.0.0.0 down
post-down brctl delif br0 eth0
post-down brctl delif br0 wlan0
post-down brctl delbr br0
This interface file works great for AP's (with a few changes). Any help
would be really appreciated.
