Hello all,

I have been running Windows 8 since the beta release and up until this point haven't had use for adapter bridging or "internet connection sharing". I have a cellular modem hooked up via USB and am trying to bridge the USB modem adapter with my LAN port on my tower to output to a wireless router. When I attempt to do this, I see the message stating "please wait while windows bridges the networks." Then after about 10 minutes it completes but the bridge doesn't seem to be successful as it is displaying no internet connection. I removed the bridge an restarted my machine. After restarting the LAN adapter displays its status as "Enabled", however the cellular modem displays "Enabled, Bridged"(See Below).

I have done about an hours worth of googling looking for the answer with no success on how to remove the adapter from its bridge. When I select both adapters and try to recreate a bridge it displays "You must select two adapters not currently in use by ICA." (See Below)

Any help is appreciated, Thanks!
