network sharing and bridge issue
Hi I'm new to the forum and I'm hoping one of you can help me with a network sharing issue.
I'm trying to connect my xbox to my laptop so I can use its wireless connection. I have done this before on a previous laptop with no issues, but every time I try to bridge to connections I get an error message saying
"to create a network bridge you must select at least two or high speed internet connections that are not being used by internet sharing"
I have done some searches and I have been told to enable sharing on the main wireless connection, but every time I try to do this I get an error saying
"an error occurred while connection sharing was being enabled
(null)"
I did another search and was told to go into services and set a few programs to automatic at start-up which I did to no effect. I was also told the disable UAC control but that has done nothing
if I go into properties on my wireless I and check the to boxes the only options I have in the drop down menu is Wireless Connection 2 and local LAN
Any help on this would be very much appreciated
Thanks
Peter
