Right. This was the intended purpose of the box. I already thought about to
put in an unused interface but it's too tight in the case that I use.

I'm afraid that I have to buy another case to add a third interface.

Thanks,
Bernd

WAN and LAN are required. What I have done for a teesting box is just assign
a an unused interface to WAN and only use LAN and OPT1(wifi) for testing.

So if I read your email properly, you basically want m0n0 to sit between
your WLAN clients and your out-bound "router" or LAN switch. Thereby you can
shape their traffic and or apply rules and pass then thru the LAN interface
to the lan.
