Internet Connection Sharing throgh Bridge

ParazituTM · 06-17-2007, 10:55 AM

OK, i came to the end of my patience and computer knowledge...

Following problem: 2 PCs, 1 Laptop, 1 PCMCIA Wireless Adapter, 1 on board LAN on PC1, 1 on board LAN on PC2, one Ethernet Network Adapter on PC1, one PCI Wireless Adapter on PC1.
PC1: Win 2003 Server
PC2: Win XP Profesional
Laptop: Win XP Profesional
Internet Connection is Broadband through on board LAN on PC1. I want to share that Internet Connection to PC2 and Laptop. I bridge Ethernet Network Adapter and PCI Wireless Adapter on PC1 and share the Internet Connection. PC2 now has access to the Internet.
Bridge: IP: 192.168.0.1
PC2: IP: 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1
Laptop: IP: 192.168.0.3
SM: 255.255.0.0
Gateway: 192.168.0.1
PC2 and Laptop also have the DNS from my ISP.
now, i should have successfully shared my Internet Connection to PC2 and the Laptop... but somehow the Laptop does not have access to the Internet. i can't seem to find any solutions to this problem. any ideas?
Thank you in advance

I can't imagine why you don't just use a broadband router, it would be a much better solution.

What is a Wireless bridge exactly, like I know the definition but what is an example?
