ok i have a wireless network so i can get internet in the loft where my room is. I also have an xbox360 and instead of buying one of those Ã‚Â£60 adapters i connected it to my pc using a crossover cable and bridged this connection with my wireless internet connection to get xbox live. This all worked well but ive noticed that my internet times out more and disconnects. My network status also says 'conneced with limited access' instead of just 'connected'. What does this mean? and is it responsible for my disconnects and timeouts? My internet is also running slower is this related? If i remove the wireless bridge it goes back to saying 'connected' with no limited access part.

Thanks to anyone who posts.
