Hi. I am having problems setting up a network bridge on my new computer. My
old pc was running Windows XP SP2. I connected to the internet with a
wireless usb adapter. My Xbox 360 was plugged into the computer's ethernet
connection. I bridged the two together and everything was fine.

Now on my new computer running Windows XP Media Center Edition, I can't seem
to get an internet connection when I bridge the two together. Whatever
information you need in order to assist me, please le me know, because I am
at a loss as to what to do.
