    Hello there,

    OK, i've read through the bridging threads on here and i would like to stress right away, this request / question is totally different from the normal bridging requests here.

    OK, this is the scenario. I dont want to have to buy the xbox wireless adapter, i want to make use of the 2 wireless routers i have already.

    I want to have my xbox and PC on the same network but in different rooms. Only for the purposes of streaming divx files to XBMC.

    My question is, can someone point me in the right direction or at least let me know if it's possible. I want the two routers to communicate via 802.11G with both my PC and xbox wired into their own router.

    Below is a (very rough) network diagram to help illustrate my point.

    The point of the bridge is that your xbox HAS to be connected to your pc's LAN. No matter what, because you have to bridge the two NIC's, whenter they are normal wired NIC's or Wireless NIC's. This setup would be impossible, as far as I know. And I stress, as far as I know.
