I have a pc which i use for connection to the internet and mail access. This pc connects to the internet via a network car to a cable set top box. I then have network card which connects to my home network. At present I have the BT device connected to this pc, if i disable the home network card and run the home network wizard (sorry all my pc's use xp) then when I set up my ipaq 5550 using your guide (excellent) i get network access on my ipaq and can connect to the net. BUT when i enable the home network card and run the network wizard again a network bridge is created which takes the all important ip address of 192.169.0.1 away from the BT device. I have tried lots of settings with no success, I have also tried connecting the BT device to one of the client pc's (which would be better for me if it can be done) but no success. I hope I have explained the problem okay and look forward to any replies many thanks LIGHTPROF

There's another thread about Windows XP around here, and it seems that Bridge would allow more than one sharing to co-exist. I don't have a Windows XP box handy to test but you're probably just around the solution.
