if the wlan interface can't connect to the phone's AP, it's all a moot point.
Well, no amount of swearing at it got any form of bridged connection working. I retreated and set up a routed solution instead. Which worked perfectly just as soon as I set "mode=dynamic-keys" on the wireless interface. The bridged solution will probably work perfectly too, if I ever recover my composure enough to give it another go :-) I'll let you know if it does. Sorry for the noise :-( and many thanks for the help.
