Default Help Bridge Connection WinXp

I just got myself a new ipaq and I have the Socket Wi-Fi card. At work I have my laptop running XP Pro which I connect to the corporate network through an ethernet card, and I have a wireless card as well. I am able to gain access to the Corporate network and Internet through my ethernet card, and I am able to ping and talk to my ipaq via 802.11b through an ad-hoc connection with my WI-FI card. What can't do is bridge my ethernet and wireless connections to allow my ipaq to access the corporate network and the internet.

The ethernet card is configured via DHCP with an ip address in the range 10.164.84.x and a subnet of 255.255.255.0. I configured my wireless card for ad-hoc and a static ip 192.168.1.200 and a gateway of 192.168.1.0. My ipaq is configured static as 192.168.1.199 and a gateway of 192.168.1.0.

I have tried many different setups, ip, subnets, etc and I can't get this to work. If I bridge the connections in XP, I lose communications with the ipaq but can talk from the laptop to the corporate network. When I use ICS I also lose communication between the ipaq and the laptop.

Any help would be appreciated. I have found very little useful information about bridges and xp.

Thans,

abombss
