So i copied the three scripts Sven provided, and I am not able to get the bridged connection working. Every time i run the script, the current eth0 connection is closed, and another ethernet connection is created that results in no interaction with the outside world. When i close the server and run the ifdown.sh script, the ethernet connection goes back to normal.
Sounds strange, but I'm not very familiar with bridged setups. Maybe it does not work this way for you as it seems to work suboptimal for Sven too. He wrote
Perhaps you must prevent local networking from using the bridged interface (for whatever reason, this does not seem to work in my case)
and configures his host to route over his wireless - Sven?
Am i meant to follow the instructions you provided in your email before i run these scripts? I tried doing that myself and it didn't work.
No, Sven's scripts should work without my notes.
