WRT160n V3 connection bridge help!

Is there anyway I can set up this router to bridge my connection. I only have 1 ethernet port on my laptop, so i was wondering if i could set up the wifi to bridge it to my xbox, i was hoping to connect to the internet thru the wifi on my laptop, and then pluging my xbox to the laptop by the ethernet port and having the xbox connect to the internet using the wifi of the computer like a bridge connection. im running windows vista 64bit home premium, and a WRT160n V3 router.
Any tips/help will be much appreciated. Thank you

You cannot use your laptop to bridge your xbox to your WRT160N.  You would need an Xbox Wireless Networking adapter such as http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/splash/x/xbox360wirelessnnetadapter/ or a Wireless Bridge such as a WET610N: http://homestore.cisco.com/en-us/adapters/linksys-wrt610n-wirelessn-gaming_stcVVproductId65221232VVc...

  • WRT160N Internet Connection Problem

    I have Verizon (non PPPoE) DSL.
    Using a very old Wirespeed 2100 Modem and a WRT160N everything connects. However the Wirespeed 2100 Modem does not support ADSL2+
    So I have tried two ADSL2+ Modems - a Westell 6100G and a Zoom ADSL2+ 5715. The 6100G has been put into bridge mode and has worked in the past with another router. The Zoom 5715 is a bridge modem.
    Both ADSL2+ modems light up their DSL lights showing they are seeing and syncing with the dsl - however the WRT160N does not get an IP address with either and I have no internet connection. I know Verizon would require MAC cloning - however in this case the MAC is always coming from the WRT160N and therefore should be the same irrespective of which modem I use.
    If I put the 2100 back in place everything work again - the WRT160N gets an IP address and and I have an internet connection.
    I would like to get the WRT160N to get a IP address through either of the ADSL2+ modems so I can (hopefully) get a faster connection using ADSL2+
    The reason I suspect the WRT160N is causing the problem is the 6100G has previously worked fine with another router (which had the MAC cloned to the same address as the WRT160N). For a number of reasons the other router is no longer an option.
    Ideas?

    As per the concern you explained that you wanted to get a faster connection using ADSL2+.... So for that could you tell us how you have connected the a Westell 6100G and a Zoom ADSL2+ 5715.... What is the IP address that you get from the modem.... 
    As in your post you said that your ISP ( Internet Service Provider ) is Verizon (non PPPoE ) DSL.....
    So how is your modems been configured in bridge mode....
    If these are in bridge mode than in that case have been provided by any username and password by Verizon....

  • ITunes Store for Windows. Everytime I try an access the iTunes Store it takes really long to connect and then it says iTunes store cannot be access. I think I am up to date with iTunes Verizon 11.0.2.26 but no matter what I try it does not connect. HELP P

    iTunes Store for Windows. Everytime I try an access the iTunes Store it takes really long to connect and then it says iTunes store cannot be access. I think I am up to date with iTunes Verison, I Have 11.0.2.26 but no matter what I try it does not connect. HELP Please???

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

    My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

    Thank you both for your responses but my daughter was reassured by the salesman in the iStyle store (official Apple store in the UAE) that iMessages would work but conceded that FaceTime wouldn't. My iTunes account is registered in the uk and my daughter's iPhone has iMessages even though she bought it (and uses it) in Dubai. Can anyone else throw any light on this?

  • Output in Bridge CC missing. Attempt to install fix from Bridge Help. WinZip failed. Now what?

    The Output function in Bridge CC is missing. I attempted to install the fix that was available via Bridge help. The WinZip download worked fine. I found the recommended file location. The fix did not install. What else can I use? When will an update be available? Thanks.

    In CC, I am forced to leave Bridge, go into the application, and Open the file through the system dialog box.
    That is not normal behavior (at least on my Mac I still have all installed applications as option under this menu). By default the open with menu under the righty mouse menu should show all installed applications on your system. It sometimes even shows them double in case of attached disks with back up etc.
    This has not changed in Bridge CC. If you have those applications installed on your system at the same location as Bridge they should show.
    First try a reset of preferences for Bridge with holding down control key while restarting Bridge and choose rest preferences from the provided menu.

  • I just got a new Mac yesterday and I am trying to connect my Logitech headset for work but can't!  I plug it into the USB but nothing pops up and I can't find where I go to look to see if it's connected.  HELP!

    I just got a new Mac yesterday and I am trying to connect my Logitech headset for work but can't!  I plug it into the USB but nothing pops up and I can't find where I go to look to see if it's connected.  HELP!

    Ask the Verizon store to exchange your iPhone for a different iPhone 4.
    UPDATE - Sure, try ckuan's solution first.  Then use mine if that fails.

  • Connect search help to standard table

    hi!
    i want to connect search help to structure P0001-MSTBR, without a repair.
    is it possible? and if so how?
    regards
    yifat

    Hi,
    If you want to add a search help to a structure or a table, it would eb a modification. No other way.
    However, you could decide to program the F4 in your transaction. You could then make use of the FM F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST. Just pass to this FM, an internal table of values. Ofcourse you would have to populate some other fields like field name, etc.
    Remember to reward points.

  • Restore Failure - Could not open connection to helper tool

    I created a disk image on an external firewire drive using disk utility.
    The external drive is bootable and I run the Disk Utility software from the external drive.
    When I try to restore from the image selecting the source and target I get the following error after clicking the "Restore" button:
    "Restore Failure
    Could not open connection to helper tool."
    Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?
    Additional info:
    MacBook Pro 2.16 Intel
    Tiger 10.4.7
    Boot ROM MBP12.0061.B00
    SMC 1.5f10
    Internal Hard Disk: ST9120821AS
    External Hard Disk: FireLite FW800
    All software and firmware up-to-date
    Disk Utility 10.5.6 (198.12)

    I've experienced the same problem. What I know is that we built a system image using Disk Utility on a MacPro and we experience this error when attempting to restore the image on another MacPro using Disk Utility.
    I've successfully built system images of MacBook Pros and restored them without any problems. However, I believe I may have built the image using Carbon Copy Cloner. This may warrant some more experimentation using the different utilities.

  • Getting "Could not open connection to helper tool" when restoring a disk

    I have installed OS X 10.4 on to my USB flash drive using the OS X disc that came with my iMac 24". I wanted to use the flash drive for booting the system in case I run into trouble with my iMac.
    Everything was good. I was able to use the flash drive to boot my iMac with no problem. I made an image of the flash drive using Disk Utility. However, when I tried to restore it, Disk Utility kept reporting "Restore Failure: Could not open connection to helper tool". Please tell me what to do.
    The USB flash drive is formatted using GUID Partition table.

    Same problem here.
    I successfully created an image from a drive and I'm trying to restore to another drive.
    I get the "preparing source..." for 2 seconds before the "Restore Failure" dialog with his geeky and meaningless error message. what is helper tool?! I thought I was using Disk Utility!!
    Anybody can suggest a work around for yet another problem missed by QA ?
    thanks in advance.

  • My Apple TV suddenly can't find my network and tells me it is not connected..help?

    My Apple TV suddenly can't find my network and tells me it is not connected..help?  I have reset my time capsule and have all the latest updates. My iPhone and ipad do not show airplay even though I have it turned on in Apple TV.

    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.
    Restart your mobile device.
