LXC bridge wireless connection

I have WiFi connection managed by NetworkManager. I want to pass that connection into my LXC container. I cannot bind it to bridge directly because I get error:

[root@xxx]# brctl addif lxcbr0 wlp3s0
can't add wlp3s0 to bridge lxcbr0: Operation not supported

Is there any other way to pass internet connection to that container?

I've also tried with physical access but it also caused errors:

lxc-start: The container failed to start.
lxc-start: To get more details, run the container in foreground mode.
lxc-start: Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --log-priority options.

You can always use NAT: see the wiki.
