Question by Joey: How do I connect my Sony Home Theater system to the Internet through my Laptop?

I just bought a Sony Blu-Ray Disc/DVD Home Theater System “BDV-E370″ and before I purchased it I didn’t realize that I the internet adapter came separate. So what I want to do is connect my Home Theater System to my wireless laptop by using a Ethernet cable. I already bridged the connections but the Home Theater system recognizes the connection but won’t connect to the internet. How do I fix that?

There is such a thing as “bridging connections.” This process will vary slightly depending on your operating system, but here are a couple videos on how to do it.

Windows XP:

(same process, just without the PS2)

Edit:
Won’t connect to the internet you say? Is the laptop itself able to access the internet? Generally if the connections are bridged correctly you should not have to worry about anything else… I would try re bridging the connections, maybe something went wrong?
