Well finally got a 360 (wife snagged one at BB and then lied until Xmas) . My current setup has a MCE PC in my entertainment center with a wireless card to a Linksys wireless router.

What I would like to do is hardwire to the MCE PC and use Internet connection sharing on my wireless connection. Killing 2 birds (live and mce connect) with 1 stone (wire). But alas, I can not figure out a way to 1) share a wireless connection and 2) have my spare nic give the 360 an IP adress and 3) have the MCE connect find the 360 when plugged in the open nic port. (ps:I am using a crossover/patch cable when going PC to 360)

If I hardwire the 360 to the router (standard cable) everything works as advertized.


Any ideas?

Bridge network connections for a crossover cable.

Look in your internet connections settings to do this, just highlight both connections and select bridge connections.

Ill look into it tonight. I was wondering what bridge was in the settings, and the Xp help really wasnt. Thanks

Edit: Nope, it says it has an unexpeced error. Does the same whan I use the wizard to share the wireless conection. Maybe you just cant share a wireless nic through ICS?
