Can't bridge connections to PC?
Okay so I have a Windows 7 Lap Top, and I am trying to bridge it's internet to my Windows XP Tower Computer. My Tower has no internet, but my Lap Top has WiFi. What I have done is connected a Ethernet cord and on my Lap Top I have gone to Network settings, and clicked to bridge my local area connection to wireless, and this works when I bridge to my Xbox360, but some reason not when I try to do it to my Tower. It says on the "Tower Limited or no connectivity". I assume it is connecting to our router but not the network.
I have installed all Drivers needed.

It is funny that it works on your xbox360 but not on your tower.
It could be your tower's network settings, your tower's network services, or maybe your network cable (you do use a crossover network cable, don't you ?)
You probably have an Access Point, can you plug your tower in there for a test. You may have to run internet options from the control panel. Check the internet settings of your tower, have all settings (ip address as well as DNS) set to automatic. Restart the tower and see if it is solved. If internet connects to the internet via the access point or router with a normal (not crossover) networkcable, then it should connect with a crossover cable to your laptop.

you in simple terms % a easy community adapter. It is going interior the PCIe slot, like the place your video card is going in. i will admit i do no longer know plenty approximately them, yet in simple terms get one with a extreme score on Newegg that suits your funds, and in step with threat perform a little Googling approximately them if no person else provides extra concepts on it.
