Hi,

Can anyone confirm that bridging a mesh with a wired interface is not
working? I want to make sure that it is not a problem from my side.

When I ping from outside the mesh I get: "!valid or proxy" and "frame
not fwd'd, no path" from the debug information.

My setup is simple

STA --- MPP )) -- (( MP

STA: Ubuntu PC
MPP: RSPRO mesh portal bridging wired and mesh
MP: RSPRO mesh point

ifconfig for MPP:
