Let me put this out before i start asking anything: I dont want to bridge to cheat online. I need to bridge a connection because i dont want to buy a wireless adapter for 100+ dollars. anyway... Ive been looking all over the place for info about how to do this and have done the following: opened up my network connections, selected my wireless connection and connection 2, right clicked em' and pressed bridge. it now says i have a network bridge, connected and firewalled, a wireless network, connected and firewalled and Connection 2, unplugged, firewalled. whenever i plug my xbox into my ethernet port on my computer and try to go online it says to check the internet connection/cables. ive used different ethernet cables, so i know thats not the problem i have a linksys WRT54GS... any help would be appreciated.. thanks, -mad
