but everytime i try bridging error comes up:


u must have at least 2 lan or high speed connections which are not being used by internet sharing connection!!!

so any thing else i can do.

i am recieve the net to my pc but i just want to share it with my xbox using a ethernet cable and NOT directly from my router. so i want my pc to pass the internet on to my xbox

im not sure if you can actually do what you want to do there but...
(no guarantess here)
if your wireless connection shows up in network connections right click it and go to properties and select the advanced tab, from there you should be able to share the internet connection.

like i say no guarantees that it will work but i reckon it should
