I checked the settings and "Network Bridge" was not available because I only have
one network. My single router is connected to my cable modem. Through the wall
sockets I have two desktop computers (one Vista and one XP) connected to the router
(a D-Link I believe). The wireless access point is connected through a switch (both
are Linksys, I think). The XP computer is wired to the router through the switch.
Is this setup considered two networks that must be bridged? The Vista desktop does
not have a wireless card and it does not see the wireless access point or any laptop
that is connected through the wireless access point, but it does network with the
XP computer that is wired to the switch. Any help would be appreciated.
