i am trying to set something up so my xbox 360 will use my laptops internet. i am using the ethernet cable, 1 end in 360, other in laptop. i learned that i should go into network connections, highlight both my wireless connection and my local area connection, and select bridge connections. the problem is i cant find the network connections, and the thing i have opened im not sure is the right thing. it just says network, idk WHAT i need to highlight exactly, i just cant find it. please, any suggestions?
Network bridging help?
you're in the right spot it could be that you are not using A CAT6 cable when you connected you xbox 360 to your laptop. The most popular cable that people have is CAT5 or CAT5e it will tell you on the cable what kind it is. And you do highlight your wireless connection and your local area connection. It could just be that you have the wrong cable.
Reply:maybe the drivers for you lan is not installed. network connections is in control panel or you can right click on your network icon and then click properties to get there. you also will have to use a cross-over cable. you don't need to worry about Cat 6 that is over kill for what you are trying to do. unless you are running your cable longer than 100m
Reply:Highlight the wired and wireless connection, the right click, bridge connections.
