[ale] Bridging Wireless and Ethernet

I was thinking of purchasing a Linksys WET11 to bridge my Xbox
to my wireless segment.  I'm currently using my laptop with a 
script that will route packets between its eth0 and eth1 (wireless).
It basically does the following

1) give eth0 an ip
2) create /tmp/.xbox.dhcp.conf
3) start dhcp on eth0
4) enabled IP Masq.

While this works, I would prefer to have a script
that would bridge the 2 interfaces.  Of course the laptop would
not be pingable on either one but that is okay.  Has anyone
used the bridge tools to do such a thing?

Thanks,
Chris
