Having put this project aside for a while I picked it up again after receiving a comment on a previous post. With a little help from the developer Hirte at aircrack my wifi-hacking setup is finally complete. It now works exactly the way I was hoping to get it running even when my MAC address is changed. The last parts were resolved by changing back to the r8187 driver which is available from the aircrack-ng web page here. In order to get rid of the annoying “SKB BUG: Invalid truesize (304) len=226, sizeof(sk_buff)=176″ I made some adjustments to my syslog-ng configuration as suggested on their web page.
When running with a different MAC address, the address should be changed both using ifconfig and then set as parameter when starting airbase-ng with the -a switch. Thanks again Hirte!

Thanks to SavvyAdmin.com I finally got bridging to work with my wireless device in VirtualBox. I have not yet given it as extensive testing that I would like but my first impression is that it actually works. In order to get it running you need two programs bcrelay and parprouted. I just this minute finnished typing the last lines of my script that starts bridging between a given interface and the wlan. The script is somewhat long as it enables ip forwarding, makes apropriate changes in my firewall configuration, starts the daemons and finally tries to reset it all when it ends. I have posted the script here for anyone who would like to try it out. Feel free to drop me a line with suggestions or changes.
