Bridge creation LAN WLAN (a little bit complex)

Hi

I couldn't manage to get a bridge working. My LAN's topology looks like this:

Now, some of the nodes are connected via wireless, and some people said that some wlan nics don't support bridging. What I need from you are the concrete commands with parameters (in the right order) to create the bridge br0 for wlan0 and bring up the network, and setting up the routes, so I can debug this myself.

Again, WITHOUT using any scripts or daemons, rc.d/network or net-profiles, etc, only the raw commands. The LAN's SSID is "FOOBAR".

Thanks

Addendum
Of course the firewalled router is connected to the WAN. I just forgot to draw the line. It's not *that* firewalled

scripts or daemons, rc.d/network

You know you can open up those things in any old text editor and see the "raw commands"? [I don't know about the net-profiles thing]

Also, it's probably just me but I can't see you picture.
