Hi,

I have three items that I want to network (with internet) together. My
PC, DS and my Xbox. My setup is as follows. I have a Netopia wireless
router which supplies my internet connection by means of a wireless
card to the PC. My PC has a network card which by means of a crossover
cable I have used to connect my Xbox to my PC. I also have a Nintendo
DS Wifi USB dongle which I use to supply Internet to my DS. I have them
all networked at the moment however I can't share my internet to my
xbox. It can access my shares and files on my PC but it can't access
the internet. ICS is set up for the Nintendo USB dongle however I can't
seem to set it up for my Xbox unless I disconnect the dongle. Windows
seems to only allow one network to share internet at a time. When I
access the ICS settings under Wireless card supplying the internet I
have to choose from the drop down menu between my DS having internet or
my Xbox. Does anyone know how I can sort this out?



Wireless Card: 192.168.1.8
Nintendo USB Wifi Dongle: 192.168.0.1
Network Card: 192.168.2.1
Xbox: 192.168.2.2

Internet through your wireless router, without the need for the Wi-Fi
dongle?  If I understand this Nintendo web site, it can:

If the dongle isn't necessary, you only need to share the PC's
Internet connection with the Xbox, using the wired network card.

If the DS can only connect to the Internet through the Wi-Fi dongle,
follow these steps to configure the PC to share the Internet
connection over the wireless dongle and the network card at the same
time.  I recommend making a restore point with System Restore first to
make it easy to recover from any possible problems:

1. Un-share the wireless Internet connection.

2. Configure the network card, Nintendo, and Xbox to obtain an IP
address automatically.

3. Create a network bridge between the network card and the Nintendo
USB Wi-Fi dongle.  Details here:

4. Share the wireless Internet connection.  If it asks what to use for
the home network, tell it to use the Network Bridge.

5. If that doesn't give Internet access to the DS and the Xbox, try
the steps shown here:
