<div dir="ltr">Keep in mind, if they're saying your internet is "wifi", than they run the infrastructure in-house, and might not allow you to bridge behind their service. Most wifi setups limit you to a single mac, so simply bridging through isn't good enough, you'll need to NAT out the wifi. This is a bit backward from how ddwrt does it, and will require some special/custom config.<div><br></div><div>Sort of crappy they "only" provide you a wifi-only option - is this some sort of apartment, dorms, or...?
