Hi, everyone,
Thanks for sharing your experiences on Wi Fi driver and NIC driver with NIC Bridge. With renewed confidence, I've persisted with a new GIT version of Genode and now I am happy to share that I'm able to get NIC Bridge working with Wi Fi driver as well for 2 x sessions of Virtualbox, one with an Ubuntu Linux guest and the other with a Windows 7 guest. The funny thing is that I used the same configuration file as previous so I am not sure why it works now while previously it could not.
As I proceed to use Turmvilla as regular, I would like to share 2 issues and see if there are any suggestions to improve.
a. Shutdown of VMM - Fixes #1687. I would attempt to shutdown my Windows or Linux session and the VMM window would hang. I thought it was fixed by Fixes #1687 but it seems the problem is still there. I have checked and double-checked that Fixes #1687 is in. Any idea ? I've not manage to capture the logs for this issue.
b. Memory leak or stability issue. I have encountered a couple of times leaving the Turmvilla scenario with both sessions running (just web browsers) for 1-2 hours. When I returned to the machine, the entire computer hanged up. I could not even access CLI terminal to terminate anything. As usual, besides the logs, any suggestions to troubleshoot the issue.
Thanks.

Can I clarify with you that the nic_bridge can both support Wifi_Driver

well as the Nic_Driver. In my tests, I could only get the nic_bridge to work with the Nic_Driver to support 2 clients (Windows + Drivers).
We had a short offline discussion this morning and after that it's unclear if the ProxyARP approach could work with WiFi as it is currently used with the wifi_drv. So, if anybody on the list has some experience with bridging and Wifi, please speak up.
