Okay, so when I lived at my parents place this summer, this worked for me. I connected my simple ethernet cord from my laptop and put it in my 360's port or whatever. I then enabled ICS. Bam. Simple and efficient. I enjoyed gaming from my room without having to run a long ass cable. Now I'm living in an apartment and me and the guy that lives under me share our internet. He's given me the okay to do this also, so I just wanna do it. But now when I go to manage my network connections, my wireless connection doesn't even have a Shared tag anymore when I go to it's properties. I am getting frusterated. Bridging the connection to my LAN doesn't work either, as I've tried it. It worked at home, but it aint workin now either. Okay...so what do ya'll think is the problem here? And if theres a way around it, can you just help me and tell me how exactly to do it? I'm just ****ed that something that was so easy to do last time has turned so frusterating.

You need to have a crossover cable for it to work when you bridge your connections. -- mansrm81 If you think I helped you fix your problem give me some rep . Click onthe scales. [image: http://www.vistax64.com/members/mans...-untitled.jpg] |

mansrm81;886348 Wrote: You need to have a crossover cable for it to work when you bridge your connections. Well, I know it's a standard cat 5 cable. or at least i'm pretty sure. I found it around my parents house, and I doubt they have any crossover cables just laying around. But it worked when I bridged the connection before, I am fairly sure. Or maybe not. But how can i just get the ICS to work again then? Im not down for spending money on a crossover cable. haha -- HurricaneMIKE |
