Re-2: [Voyage-linux] bridging interfaces

[(spam-protected)]

Current PC setup is:
---------------------
Newly installed voyage 0.3pre2:
eth0 connected to a router -  ip addr 192.168.1.1
wireless card connected to antenna
interfaces file:
  auto lo
  iface lo inet loopback

  auto ath0
  iface ath0 inet manual
        # setup ath0
        pre-up wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap
        post-down wlanconfig ath0 destroy
        # Setup channel, mode, SSID
        wireless-mode master
        wireless-channel 6
        wireless-essid WirelessAP
        # Setup WEP
        wireless-key 1234567890123

  auto br0
  iface br0 inet static
        address 192.168.1.2
        netmask 255.255.255.0
        broadcast 192.168.1.255
        gateway 192.168.1.1
        # Bridge eth0 and ath0
        bridge_ports eth0 ath0


Current wireless laptop setup:
---------------------
static ip 192.168.1.16
mask 255.255.255.0

Problem:
--------
We connect from laptop to PC via wireless just fine (first time it asked for key, we entered, no errors)
We cannot ping 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.2 from 192.168.1.16
We cannot ping 192.168.1.16 from PC
>From the PC we can ping 192.168.1.1

So what do we need to do to get the laptop able to ping 192.168.1.1 & 192.168.1.2? And get PC to ping 192.168.1.16?

Thanks for any help.
