So I found the Arch Wiki articlehttps://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/OpenVPN_Bridge about creating an openvpn bridge network for running games. I have some questions about what some of this does, as now that I've implemented this, if prevents me from connecting to the internet through any means.
1. Tap0 was added as in the wiki
2. /etc/conf.d/bridges
bridge_br0="tap0 lan0 wlan0"
BRIDGE_INTERFACES=(br0)Is this assigning all connections for lan0 and wlan0 to br0? To connect to the internet, do I need to edit my internet settings in this regard?
3.edited /etc/rc.conf
#...
tap0="tap0 up"
lan0="lan0 up"
wlan0="wlan0 up"
br0="dhcp"
#alias example
br0_0="br0:0 192.168.3.252 netmask 255.255.255.0 up"
INTERFACES=(tap0 lan0 wlan0 br0 br0_0)
#...It told me to insert this if I was using the default network daemon. My question is, Do I need it if I use netcfg or wicd to maintain my connections? And if I don't, how do I accomplish the same thing? I've read multiple guides, and I believe I understand OpenVPN, but I am unsure as to how to implement such things using arch's myriad of network utilities.
The Problem is that I get no internet when openvpn is running? Any suggestions? I can still see them, but connecting fails.

the configuration looks fine, but you should check whether you are getting valid settings from dhcp using ifconfig, also check to see if your default route is properly set and if dns settings are correct.
