I'm working on a mobile robotics project that uses two Pi's onboard a mobile robot, one working as a processor and the other working as a camera streaming server. The processor Pi has a long-range WiFi connection, which I need to share with the onboard Ethernet network. Previously I used dnsmasq to make the pi act as a router between the WiFi network and the onboard Ethernet, however now I have a WiFi network dedicated to this system and I need the onboard network to be on the same subnet as the main network.
When searching for a way to do this I found a lot of tutorials on how to make a separate network with dnsmasq and bridge the main one with it, but I haven't found any up to date tutorials about just bridging the two interfaces of the Pi together without it acting like a router in between.
I have an access point which can be configured to act as a WiFi client instead, and it does what I want quite well so it should be possible I think, however because it won't roam between access points and is bound to a specific AP MAC address, I can't use it and I need to do this another way, preferably using the onboard Pi.
