MAC Bridge Miniport?

[Guest]

my Mac bridge miniport seems to be causing me to have difficulties in
connecting to my home and office network and to the net....

for example, at the office, if i want to have access to both the net and the
network, i need to have my 1394 connection disactivated and both the mac
bridge miniport and the lan connection activated... if i disactivate both the
1394 and mac bridge, i'll only be able to connect to the net and not the
network!!!!????

now, when i get back home, to have access to both my network and the net, i
need to have both the 1394 and the mac bridge disactivated to connect...
if the mac bridge is activate, i might get the network but won't get the
net...

can anyone help me rectify this problem so that i don't have to keep
modifying my connections between my office and my home...

do i need the mac bridge anyway???

thx for any help....

No. Not unless you want to establish a Firewire network
connection.

Remove it.

thx hans for your response...

just a few more quezies....

1. if i remove that mac bridge, might it affect my connection to a lan?
2. to remove it, i go to device manager, find it in my networkcards, and
uninstall it?

thanks again for your help....

Not if you don't need it. And if you do, you can always add it
again.

There's more than one way to remove it, but they're all easy
enough. Just try.
