    I have a wireless bridge but I assume it's pretty much the same as a gaming adapter.

    I had to connect the bridge to my laptop via ethernet cable and change the ip address to match the subnet of the router, i.e. 192.168.1.1, so I gave it the ip address of 192.168.1.226 (i think ).

    Now when you power it on, all the leds go through their bootup routine and then the wireless led comes on. I then tried to connect from my PC (hardwired to router) using the above ip address and it connected.

    Then connected the bridge to the dreambox. Remember when you're configuring the dreambox network settings that the default gateway is still the router ip address, i.e. 192.168.1.1, and not the gaming adapter, the router is the still the gateway to the internet.

    Hope that helps or jogs something.
