Hi Jeff,

I must say: madwifi-ng bridging has been working since voyage-0.2. 

Modified madwifi-ng WDS bridge sample in /etc/network/interfaces like below:

# madwifi-ng WDS Bridge
#auto br0
iface br0 inet static
       address 192.168.1.2
       netmask 255.255.255.0
       network 192.168.1.0
       broadcast 192.168.1.255
       gateway 192.168.1.1
       bridge_ports eth0 ath0
       #bridge_ports eth0 ath0 ath1
       pre-up wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap
#       pre-up wlanconfig ath1 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode wds
       pre-up iwpriv ath0 mode 3
       pre-up iwconfig ath0 essid "voyage-wds" channel 1
#       up iwpriv ath1 wds 1
#       up iwpriv ath1 wds_add AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF
       post-down wlanconfig ath0 destroy
#       post-down wlanconfig ath1 destroy

Regards,
Punky
