Hello,
I am needing some advice i have been trying to connect my playstation2 to my laptop via the networking
plugs the 8 wire ones i gather is ethernet but im not sure, now i want the ps2 to connect to my mobile broadband.
so when i open network connections after connecting ps2 it shows four connections two in dial up one being vodafone mobile which is what i use for the net and is 3g and a disconnected 3g one by the same company, now in the LAN or high speed internet section there are two other connects, one is a wireless network connection obviously WiFi but the other is the playstation i guess and it is named Local area connection under that it says
unidentified network , so i thought all i had to do was select the mobile broadband connection and then select the local area connection right click bridge the connections and away you go but when i have both connections highlighted it wont give the bridge connections option and if you right click just on the local connection and try to bridge it gives an error saying to create a network bridge you must hve at least 2 LAN or high speed internet connections that are not being used by internet connection sharing, its driving me mad can anyone help . I have a
H.P. laptop running vista ultimate
Regards

Configuration: Windows Vista
Internet Explorer 7.0
