Some older routers (don't know about newer ones) have a bug in that when they try to assign an IP to a device "behind a bridge" they assign the same IP as the bridged computer already has--results, of course, in duplicate IP and at least one (usually the device behind the bridge) does not work. If this is happening an attempted fix is to update the router's firmware (if available). A workaround is to assign static IP configurations to the devices behind the bridge. If you try the bridge again be sure to disable ICS, make sure the ethernet has reverted to 'obtain IP auto' and then bridge the connections. |
