I don't know what you're trying to do
no surprise. i rarely do. :)
When you attach your wired nic to a bridge and and turn the bridge on
the nic gets set in promiscuous mode. This is likely why you can
ping the other wireless station through the wired nic. To ping the
wireless station through your AP then AP must either fwd the packet
directly or bridge it using some mechanism. You cannot bridge a
wireless interface unless it's operating as an ap. Either way it's
an issue at the AP.
sokeris running current
application is a remote (via wireless) ether switch
wireless client, bridged to the ethers
a few devices on the ethers such as desktop, printer, ...
it is also a local samba etc, and ipsecs to the AP's net
so it does not want to be an AP but it does want to bridge.
