I am trying to use 2 NICs in the server (the net sharer) to connect two different network segments together (2*8-port 10mbps hubs, and 12 computers). I can make the bridge OK, and Windows doesn't kick up any errors, and enable ICS as well, but no other computers other than the server can get onto the internet.
I've tried moving NICs around, remaking the bridge over and over, but still no go.
If anyone knows a way to do this, please help. I need this done within a couple of hours, as it is needed for a LAN party , and to get on the internet. The server will be a dedicated Counter-Strike server for the LAN, so i thought having the 2 NICs and the bridging in WinXP would help slightly.
Connecting the hubs together is not an option i really want to use (due to massive collision domains and less bandwidth per user), but if i cannot do it, then i will just have to connect the two hubs directly and see what the outcome is.
Thanks in advance
