Windows 7: Can't bridge connection to xbox 360? :(

I did everything I was supposed to do. (made a network bridge between my xbox and my laptops wifi) My computer says it is succesfull but my xbox and my bros xbox will not connect. why is it doing this? any advise?

Can you please post a screenshot of your Network Connections folder? Type this into Explorer to get there: Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections

Thanks!

What do you mean by Bridge, please explain how your network is setup... wired or wireless... things like that... include us on your router's model and make as well please.


are you using dynampic or static configuration for your network

Im having the exact same problem. I want to use the wireless internet signal for my xbox from my laptop (dont feel like shellin out a hundo for a wireless adapter if i heve a perfectly good laptop with wireless capabilities sitting right next to the xbox)

Previously i had bridged the LAN and wireless connections in windows vista and checkd some sharing options and it had worked. HOwever, i recently upgraded to windows 7 ultimate and i did everything the same and its not working. The internet and everything works on the laptop, the LAN green and yellow lights are flashing but the damn xbox wont connect!

I have attached a pic displaying the network connections folder. The LAN is unplugged, I know this, thats not the problem, i know this.

As for weather im using a static or dynamic ip connection, i am not entirely sure.

Any advise would be helpful, thanks

all i did was highlight your lan and internet icon in the picture you have posted and right click on them and press bidge connections, i would recommend you don't bridge the wifi if its not in use or you don't need it.
