I had a similar problem, and I will get to it in a second.
But first: bridged Wifi might not work. Some AP refuse to accept packages,
which are not from the interface bound to it. So you would have to
masquerade those packages with ebtables.
Here how I did it.
I created a dummy-bridge which is completely internal
in /etc/network/interfaces
...
iface dummy0 inet manual
auto br0
iface br0 inet static
address 10.0.77.1
network 10.0.77.0
netmask 255.255.255.0
broadcast 10.0.77.255
bridge_ports dummy0
bridge_stp yes
post-up /bin/echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
post-up /sbin/iptables --table filter --insert INPUT --source \
10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT
post-up /sbin/iptables --table filter --insert FORWARD --source \
10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT
post-up /sbin/iptables --table filter --insert FORWARD \
--destination 10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 --match state --state \
ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
post-up /sbin/iptables --table nat --insert POSTROUTING --source \
10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 ! --destination 10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 -j \
MASQUERADE
pre-down /sbin/iptables --table filter --delete INPUT --source \
10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT
pre-down /sbin/iptables --table filter --delete FORWARD --source \
10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 -j ACCEPT
pre-down /sbin/iptables --table filter --delete FORWARD \
--destination 10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 --match state --state
ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
pre-down /sbin/iptables --table nat --delete POSTROUTING --source \
10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 ! --destination 10.0.77.0/255.255.255.0 -j \
MASQUERADE
...
So 10.0.77.0/24 is my xen network for all my virtual domains.
It just will work with the default vif-bridge script.
I also use dnsmasq to serve all virtual machines with a proxy dns server.
Then I agree with my previous poster. Get rid of any network manager.
Install wpasupplicant for your wifi and manage the ethernet with
resolvconf.
