internet connection sharing problem?

[Nick]

I used to use my lap top as a connector to get online from my xbox via the PC connected to the wireless network at the house. This worked for years. Recently, it has stopped working. Now when I go under properties of my wireless network and check the allow others to connect to the internet to get internet access (which is what used to work), it tells me "An Error Occured while internet connection sharing was being enabled"

Bridging the local with wireless does not work either. Any suggestions on how to fix internet connection sharing?

Hi,

I understand you are having an issue with Sharing your internet connection on your Windows Vista computer.
From the Windows start screen go to Network- Network and sharing option at the top. It will give you options to check.
You must be the Administrator on the computer to perform this.

I hope this helps.
