Okay...I have a home network. I have 3 network cards total attached to this PC. 2 are ethernet and 1 is wireless 802.11b USB adapter. One of the ethernets goes to my dsl modem, and one ethernet goes to my moms computer...The wireless usb adapter goes to my laptop, which has the same usb adapter. If I don't enable microsoft network bridging, i can get full speeds to the laptop, but if i enabled network bridging, i only get about 500 kilobits a second...what happened!!! For some reason the link to my laptop is really slow but the one to my mom and the internet is really fast...I can't figure it out. I updated all the drivers...must be a problem with microsofts network bridging...Anyone know an alternative software for network bridging or a solution?? Thanks :)

I would just recommend getting a wireless router it sounds like it would fix a lot of problems.
