Solved: No 'Sharing' Tab
Right, I'm trying to re-connect my computer to my 360. I have had the the LAN bridged with my wireless conectio since December and everything was brilliant.

But yesterday it stopped working entirely, not even getting past the Network part of the test.

I've been looking around the Internet for solutions as after deleting the bridge, I can no longer create another one as I get a "To create another bridge you must select two LANs bla bla bla" warning.

Now, there is no longer any 'Sharing' tab in the Properties for the Wireless Network Connection. Please help!

Do you have two network adapters?

Let's see this for the computer in question.


Hold the Windows key and press R, then type CMD to open a command prompt:

In the command prompt window that opens, type type the following command:

Note that there is a space before the /ALL, but there is NOT a space after the / in the following command.

IPCONFIG /ALL

Right click in the command window and choose Select All, then hit Enter to copy the contents to the clipboard.
Paste the results in a message here.

If you are on a machine with no network connection, use a floppy, USB disk, or a CD-RW disk to transfer a text file with the information to allow pasting it here.

You have no wired NIC that is recognized by Windows, which is the problem.


Hold the Windows key and press R, then type devmgmt.msc

Please respond to all the following steps.
  1. Under Network adapters, please tell me all the devices listed.
  2. Are there any devices under Network adapters that have a red x displayed?
  3. Also, are there any devices anywhere in the Device Manager display with yellow ? or ! displayed?

Uninstall that SiS191 controller and reboot and let it install again. It's not being recognized at all by Windows networking from the previous IPCONFIG results.
