I have:

  • WiFi network with SSID=Network1 (running its own DHCP Server and connected to internet).
  • Computer1 with 1 ethernet interface and 1 WiFi interface.
  • Computer2 with ethernet interface.

My computers are all running Linux.

I would to connect Computer2 to my WiFi network using Computer1. If the network was ethernet i would just bridge both network interfaces in Computer1. But I don't know how to bridge an ethernet network and a WiFi network keeping the Wifi connection with WPA active.

I do not want to do NAT either, I want my computer2 to get an IP address directly from the DHCP server from the Wifi Network.

See Bridging wlan0 to eth0

Excerpt:

It is not possible to bridge between wireless (client a.k.a. station mode) and wired intefaces

UPD:

If you want the second computer to get DHCP address from the wireless router, using dhcrelay can achieve that.
