just bridge to the pc not the router.my 360 will only work online if my pc is connected to pc so guessing it just piggybacks the pc connection.when its connected up just registers as local lan connection on my pc.

yeah the PC picks up the LAN connection, but its as if its obtaining the same IP address, although its set to find one automatically....

hi there,

you dont need any of this bridge stuff, just set the ip maunually of the xbox, enable ICS on your wireless connection. When you enable it here will be a tab at the end of the connection properties that has details like which connection to share the internet with.

The network cable that comes with the 360 is fine, its the one im using right now.

And for ICS, follow this guide step by step and you should be fine, again its the way I set it up with no problems:
