After the Wireless Bridge installation I was able to connect my laptop directly into the hub and get to the internet. The wireless bridge was setup so that our two warehouse could stay on one network along with IP phones so that our phone system in both buildings could communicate as one. After the IP phone installation only one of the IP phone is connecting properly though they're both configured exactly the same. On the IP phone that is not connecting it reads "finding ip card". When I try to connect my laptop to the IP phone that is working correctly the phone's connection is lost until I disconnect the laptop. Should I use a crossover cable to solve this? I've been trying to figure this out for the past week and the IP phone techs don't have a resolution and the OTC tech also do not understand why it was working and now it is not. I would truly appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks.

Alright I have good news and bad news the good news is: if you remove your IP Phones the setup will work again. Once it is working plug in one of your IP phones with Laptop plugged into the bridge. Once the IP phone is connected test if the Laptop remains connected. The use another Laptop with crossover cable to connect it to the IP Phone one question (is the IP Phone acting as a bridge between the OTC Router and the Laptop?)If it is it can pull an IP address if the OTC Router is a router and the IP phone is acting as a routed interface bridge. Once you get this to work duplicate the setup for the rest of you IP phones and laptops.
BTW you do realize you are pummeling the router with RTP/UDP packets?
I hope this helps

you should check the wireless interface settings it might be set to
work as (802.11a and the bridge is configured to work as 802.11b or
802.11 g) , usually wi-fi interface and bridges by default supports and
operates in b and g
all you need is the longitus eterneth cable needed to connect to / from the Dynex 4 port Hub ethernet cable plus a host pc on Dynex 4 port ethernet hub, the host pc you need to specify that you are sharing the connection of internet connection through the eterneth, and ready luck
Make sure the wireless pickup for the laptop, integrated or separate is installed properly and is enabled. The laptop should have a function key (check your manual) like "FN". Pressing this key and usually a function key (F1-F12) should tell you if the wireless function if built in is enabled. If the wireless pickup is USB or a PCMCIA, check the installation again and make sure the hardware is compatible with each other. It's usually not a good idea to mix vendors like using a Linksys router with a Netgear pickup.
I'm assuming here that you mean that you want to connect your ps3 to the internet through a windows laptop connected to the internet wirelessly, correct me if i'm wrong...
connect an ethernet cable into your ps3 and the other end into your laptop
Connect to the internet on your laptop
go to control panel on the laptop
go to network connections
select "Local area connetion" and "wireless network connection"
right click on one of them while they're selected
click bridge connections
your ps3 should now act as if it was directly connected to the internet
