I've tried a few more things and still have been unable to resolve this.
The on-board ethernet port is going out to an xbox 360.
Also: my router is using a MAC filter, so that only computers that we
designate can use our network. Would the router recognize the network as an
invalid MAC? I didn't think this would be a problem originally because I
figured that the MAC for the wireless wouldn't change, but I'm completely
running out of ideas here.

Hi.
Bridge to where?
A second NIC can be bridged only if it is connected to a second independent
Network.

I have a computer with two connections: the on-board ethernet port and a
USB
wireless connection. I use the wireless one to connect to the internet as
the modem/router is in another part of the house.
I'm looking to bridge the two connections, but whenever I do this, the
wireless connection loses connectivity. If I remove it from the bridge,
connectivity returns to normal almost immediately.
I've done a little research on creating network bridges in XP (I have
media
center edition), but none mentioned what to do if the bridge cuts off the
wireless connection.
If I've left out any necessary information, please let me know.
And Thank you all for your time.
