| Jun 8, 2018 at 14:54 | comment | added | Steven | Yep! that fixed it. Thanks a lot for helping with this issue. I now have it working and I do have an idea where to look if I want to understand why this solved my problem and how I can solve it in a way you originally proposed. This does have the added benefit that both subnets do not have to match | |

| Jun 8, 2018 at 8:48 | comment | added | Steven | YES! that worked... partically. Thanks for your advice. I am almost there, now it seems a DHCP problem. I updated the question once more | |

They will be connected together on layer 2 as a single device and on layer 3 the bridge will have its IP address set and you should use it in order to reach the rpi. | |

Did you set up an IP address on the bridge interface on the rpi? Perhaps you should write the output of these commands from the rpi: ip link show ip addr show ip route show

| Jun 7, 2018 at 10:21 | comment | added | Steven | Thanks for the elaborate answer. I do not want to change anything on my sensor or my desktop, so this means that I should use the bridging. After some searching I am able to establish a bridge and access the sensor from my desktop. However I am not able to access the pi anymore. It seems that the bridge causes eth0 and wlan0 to be connected but leave out the 'middle' person. Is it possible to have a bridge on the pi and still access both the pi and the sensor from the desktop? | |
