Description

I have failure with my configuration involving virtual wlan. here is forum thread about the issue: http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=27285

Also I think ticket: #398 could be related, or the cause of both problems could be from same origin.

In short: I create new bridge that has vlan1 (WAN) and wl0.1 (Virtual WLAN) devices. Devices connecting to wl0.1 actually works as should, gets IP from ISP directly etc, but DD-WRT itself can't get an WAN IP no matter what I try. I have tried also to set wan_iface and/or wan_ifname to br1 (the name of new bridge) but no.

Forgot to mention what and where I run DD-WRT in... I am running standard RC6.2 in Buffalo whr-hp-g54 when testing this configuration.

I tested this further, and what I saw was when looking around nvram variables, I saw wan_hwaddr and so on being same as br0_hwaddr.. I tried to change or add at least hwaddr variables to vlan1, br1, wan... Anything I changed didn't affect br1 macaddress neither before or after reboot (ofcourse did nvram commit before reboot).

Ofcourse it can't work if br1 (having vlan1 and wl0.1) WAN interface is having same mac address than br0/LAN interface.
