Attach a hard wire from a PC that runs wireless??

Get a clone Dreambox instead that has the wifi option and sell the eagle...clone DM much better anyway..

Goto your adapter settings under Network Connections
Select Ethernet and Wireless Adapter
Right Click and Bridge Connections

See if that works

i think he means, that he's pc is picking up a wireless connection, and he wants to use the ethernet lan to feed the satellite box, which won't work as the lan is only incoming/not out, need more information to be precise,

[uniquegeek]

OK now I understand what he meant chavslav...

STILL POSSIBLE

Don't bridge your connections.

Instead on your wireless adapter properties, click on Sharing Tab and share the connection for other users on the network.

Don't use a normal Ethernet cable. You WILL need a Crossover cable from your ethernet port to your box.

It should fire up. if it doesnt, just give your box correct Static (New Available) IP addres, Subnet, Default Gateway,and DNS.

If the other methods don't work get a wireless bridge (sometimes called gaming adapters) for the receiver, what it does is it allows any device with an Ethernet port to use wireless.

Umm i might have misunderstood the question but there is a way in Windows (Meds already mentioned it for Vista)

Go to your network connections on windows

Windows 7 (For Windows vista look at Med's Reply http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/f20/send-internet-pc-296547/#post1750851)

Open the connection you use for your internet connection (wireless from what i have read)

Click on the tab named "Sharing"

on that tab you should see "Allow other network users to connect thought this computer's internet connection"
enable that
then below that choose what connection you wish to use for internet sharing (your ethernet connection from what i read)


Windows XP

Open the connection you use for your internet connection (wireless from what i have read)

Click on the tab named "Advanced"

on that tab you should see "Allow other network users to connect thought this computer's internet connection"
enable that

then below that choose what connection you wish to use for internet sharing (your ethernet connection from what i read)


Let me know if you need any more information on this :D
