Newbie needs IP/Remote Access Help

Guest

In my Windows 2000 server box I have a DSL connection that
connects me to the Internet with a static IP address, a
100BaseTX ethernet adapter, and a wireless USB adapter. I
would like to know how I can get both the ethernet and
wireless adapters to share my DSL connection. I know that
when using Windows Server 2003 I can simply create a
network bridge in conjunction with Internet Connection
Sharing, but with Windows 2000 Server I cannot find a
similar utility. I'm also a complete novice when it comes
to Routing and Remote Access, so any explanation would be
greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance,
Jim

By far the simplest and also best solution is a broadband router/firewall.
dlink, linksys, netgear and others you can search for. Something like;
