Hello,

I've finally gotten emulators/qemu to work with bridge/tap
networking on 
  FreeBSD-7.0-BETA1 i386 using bfe0: <Broadcom BCM4401-B0
Fast Ethernet> 
For reference, I used the tutorial listed at: 
http
://forums.bsdnexus.com/viewtopic.php?id=1563

My issue is, however, that QEMU/bridge/tap does not work
with my 
wireless NIC (ath0: <Atheros 5212>)

The question, is there a work-around for this issue?  My
first thought 
was to bridge the loopback device.  I tried adding the
loopback device 
lo0 to the bridge (ifconfig bridge0 addm lo0 up) but that
failed with an 
error (ifconfig: BRDGADD lo0: Invalid argument).

Any help, pointers is much appreciated.

Doug
