I'm about to hit the sack and can't hold hands, but I'll give some
cents;

For starters, you don't need a bridge to act as a gateway; think of
bridges as turning your system into a switch (layer 2 forwarding).
I've personally only used that feature on Xen hosts.

Build up your setup sequentially, internal network, external network,
NAT (if you really need it) and then firewall. Doing it all at once
will have you banging your head against problems you think you have in
the networking and it's really just that one innocent looking firewall
rule. Once host A communicates with host B, you can start to get
fancy.

I also don't think you need the virtual adapter, just tell dhcpd to
look at the actual interface, it should be the only network on it
anyway.

Bridging, no. You want to NAT. Your OpenBSD machine will provide DHCP
for ethernet and NAT will be set up to rewrite from ethernet to
wireless. There are lots of how-tos, but in a nutshell bridging is for
completely different stuff.

Edit the article. Write down the pf.config with one black line between
line, and with eight spaces before starting a line, as is:

[eight spaces]example 1

[eight spaces]example2

              example1

              example2

Or install Reddit Res, select all the config, click on "<> code",
enjoy your formatted text.
