    Network bridge no longer working


    Hi, I'm having major problems bridging 2 network connections....
    I usually run a bridge between the 2 onboard lan ports on my pc which connect to a second pc to give it internet and it has worked perfectly fine since I moved to windows 10 however the other week I did a windows update and after the restart it no longer works.

    Firstly, the second pc just sticks at 'identifying' while the first pc has internet. After this I tried the usual reset adapters, roll back & reinstall of drivers etc.
    Then I tried giving manual ip addresses to both adapters which results in the second pc now getting internet through the bridge but the first pc having an ip conflict (even though nothing else is using the same ip) and no connection.

    I'm all out of ideas, so 2 questions.... why isn't the bridge working with the automatic settings any more, and is there a guide somewhere for a manual setup of a bridged connection just so I can check I have done things right?

    Any help appreciated, Thanks!

    :)

    Network Bridge Stops Working after Creator's Update

    After I installed the creator's update, my network bridge stopped working. I bridged 2 NICs in my desktop and it seems like I can access everything fine, but when I try to access my server apps (Plex and Serviio) from another device the network bridge is
    showing up as a slow connection. The only way I can get it to work again is to delete the network bridge and just use 1 NIC. How can I get the network bridge working again?

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Network bridge does not work in windows 10

    I was using laptop1 with Win 8 with wifi connection to bridge to another laptop2 via LAN (network bridge), and it was working properly.

    Now laptop1 is upgraded to Win 10, however the network bridge doesn't work anymore.

    Tried to disconnect and recreate the bridge, but still fail.

    How to solve this issue?

    Do I need to roll back to Win 8?

    Have you tried using Internet connection Sharing instead of Bridging
