Re: [coLinux-users] bridge

[Ken P. <ke...@gm...>]

I set the explicit MAC address in the coLinux config file and install
dhcp-client in debian, bridge wireless with coLinux network
connection, I still can't get the ip from dhcp server, then I switched
to static ip for network bridge connection, but I still can't ping the
gateway and connect to Internet.

I tried to set the same MAC address as wireless card for the coLinux
connection, this doesn't help, and also tried to set different MAC
address for coLinux connection, this also doesn't work.

I have no idea how to continue.
