Without a bridge to a wired network, only the wlan systems are
connected and can not connect to your wired systems.
Would it not normally be better to route between the wireless and
wired
networks, with appropriate firewall rules in place, rather than
bridging
them?
That is the intent of a project I'm working on, and I think it will
work well. However most folks don't need the additional complexity of
multiple networks. In that case just bridging to the existing subnet
is sufficient.
