Hey all, fairly new to the forums and m0n0wall, btw its a great piece of s/w Cheesy hopefully this simple question has a very simple answer...

I have a WRAP board with 1 x RJ45 port and 2 x MINI-PCI slots all I want to do is connect the RJ45 port to our network which has a DHCP already serving ethernet clients through a switch, and then setup a wireless card to broadcast wirelessly so that clients can connect via the wireless AP to the existing network...

When I log into the GUI I can assign the WAN to the RJ45 port (sis0) and the LAN to the wireless card (ath0) but there is no bridge option(?) only a single IP option which is not what i need. If I install an extra wireless card and set it to OPT1 I can then bridge that to the WAN but this means the LAN wireless card will be useless?!?!

I think im missing something really obvious, please can someone advise, thank you!

Does no-one know a solution?  Huh

What is DHCP Relay and could this help me?

Thanks.

Try to make VLAN (for ex. REAL_LAN) and asign it to LAN device.
