    Bridge Networks

    Hello.
    I couldn't find this through search as I don't know the linux terminology.

    I have a windows machine with bridged wired and wireless connectivity that I use for my xbox. I want to do the same with my fresh installed Kubuntu laptop.
    Wireless card is a DLINK DWL-650 XtremeG

    (Both wired and wireless work perfectly by them self, I can manage to activate both of them at the same time, even less bridge them.)

    I want to achieve the following.

    XBOX------LAPTOP))))((((ROUTER-----------INTERNET

    Thanks In Advance.

    One thing you could do is learn "iptables". It's the firewall that linux comes with and will also allow you to forward your internet connection. But.....

    You could also download "Firestarter". It has a nice easy to use gui to do this. It is available in the repos.

      Guarddog (firewall) and Guidedog (NAT/masq.), both available from the Ubuntu repos, are KDE-based and very easy to use.

        What is repos?

        Edit: Never mind, I figured it out. Now I am learning the firestarter.
