I cannot ping 192.168.1.101 (the PC's wifi connection from the Beagle,
"network is unreachable").
world from the Beagle running Angstrom. I loaded Ubuntu onto the Beagle tried
the setup again, and could not reach the outside internet. Now I've gone back
to Angstrom and cannot get the connection to come back up. I am not sure why
it worked before and not now but it seems like my OpenBSD bridge0 is not
working. When it was working, typing ifconfig (as below) I seem to remember
the output for bridge0 was longer than it is now, but am not sure. Probably it
is some simple forgotten command but I do not know what it could be.

If a DHCP server is on the 192.168.1.0/24 block, you could configure
your beagleboard to get an address through DHCP, since you set up the
bridge.

If you're using a bridge, you don't need to set
"net.inet.ip.forwarding" to 1, as you aren't actually routing packets,
you're bridging them.
