I've never tried bridging off of a switched port, but this might
be the source of some of your problems.

one item to check is that if you want to bridge IP,
you must have route-IP turned off, otherwise the Pipeline
will try to route the IP packets and bridge everything else.

If you don't have a specific need to bridge (ex: NetBEUI)
it may be better to route, helps to keep the line usage down,
among other things.
