    Default Networking/Dreambox

    I have 3 x pc's,all 3 connected to the internet through a Dlink wireless/adsl router.
    1x lan and 2x wireless connection,all static addresses.
    The pc in the living room is connected wirelesly and i have a lan/crosover ethernet cable running from this pc to the Dreambox.
    I have the pc and Dreambox connected,but cannot connect to the internet from the dreambox through the wireless pc.
    I have tried configuring the xp pc to share the wireless internet connection,but the wireless internet connection does not have a sharing ability/option but the lan connection does.
    At the moment i am connecting the dreambox with a Long lan cable directly to the router when the internet is needed.
    Not being a networking guru,obviously there is an easy solution/setup or i am missing or not understanding networking properly.
    Is there a different method or setup for connecting the dreambox to the internet through the pc?

    Managed to get it working,seemed the old pci wireless card did not want to play ball.
    Brought a new usb wirelss network adapter,and bridged the Lan and internet connections
