Hi In the beginner guide in xen wiki, it uses ethernet for the bridging for the network. So if i am using wireless instead of ethernet interface, how should i go about it? I have try other methods using iw but i stuck in the WDS issues with the router.

I would concentrate on getting wireless configured on the system without Xen before moving on to getting Xen working. However getting wireless working natively is not really a question about Xen development (the topic of this list). I suggest you take it up with your distro''s user list or at best the xen-users@ list. Ian.
