Xbox one internet bridge

AMCgremlin74 · Apr 3, 2017

is it possible to give my desktop internet connection by hooking it up via Ethernet to my Xbox one which receives wireless connection. My desktop is on a different level of the building from the router and has no wireless adapter, but my Xbox one can connect
to the wireless connection. I would like to be able to use my computer without needing a wireless adapter.

A network bridge would only allow the Xbox or the laptop to use the internet at one time. ICS would eliminate that problem.

Can I download something from the arcade with these methods?

Yes you can "bridge" you laptop's wifi and Ethernet and effectively connect your Xbox through it. Using your laptop as a gateway/router.

there, you can then use a flash drive to transfer that content.

Hey there Gremlin!

To clarify, your Xbox One console is connected to your network wirelessly and you'd like to share that connection to a PC? Unfortunately that is not possible. If you'd like to explore internet connections for your PC, you'll want to check with your PC manufacturer
or invest in a wireless adapter.

If you have any other Xbox related support questions, feel free to post up a new thread and we'll do what we can.

Thanks!

Careful. Putting both devices in bridge mode will cause issues on your network. A router/modem working in bridging mode will not offer any DHCP (or any other services) to the internal network and may cause your devices to lose connectivity to each; it may
also cause unpredictable issues with your internet connection.

Ideally, either your SMC or Airport will be bridging, but not both. One should act as the edge of your home network and connect you to the internet. Whichever is not bridging should have UPnP turned on, or apply port forwarding for Xbox Live ports to your
Xbox 360.

Jason
