The bridging itself shouldn't log anything. What kind of logs do you get?

Uhm.. do you have connection tracking loaded bychance? If not, can you send
a tcpdump so that I can see which packets are getting through and which
aren't?


<ot>
This is what I see with conntrack loaded:
02:44:26.397954 eth1 P 132.229.232.30 > 132.229.231.240: icmp: echo request (frag 
9878:1480@0+)
02:44:26.398192 eth1 P 132.229.232.30 > 132.229.231.240: (frag 9878:528@1480)
02:44:26.398236 eth0 > 132.229.232.30 > 132.229.231.240: icmp: echo request

Big packets are refragmented and sent out again as a whole packet, instead of
fragments, which breaks MTU. Am currently fixing.
