WaveLAN cards do not support bridging, unfortunately -- they don't
allow for sending frames with different source address than their own (as
far as I know). I managed to work around this by creating tunnel for
ethernet frames between two WaveLAN cards. TAP ethernet driver plus
some tunnel daemon can be used for this purpose. Then you establish
bridging between ethN a tapN.
