I tried this before. The problem is that when I do step #4 (for the MAC Bridge Miniport"), there is no "Sharing" tab - like there would normally be. The problem might have to do with the fact that I am trying to share 2 connections (instead of sharing 1 connection with 2 local interfaces as is described in the "source" you are talking about).

Right click on one part of the bridge, like the adapter that you are sharing with. Go to the sharing tab of that adapter, click Allow, and select the bridge from the dropdown.

None of the 3 "connections" have a Sharing tab. The MAC bridge doesn't. And after bridging the 2 "child" connections, they don't have the Sharing tab anymore either.

The other option is manually set up static routing and enable routing with netsh forwarding=enabled. You're better off using a router for routing and windows for running software. Windows isn't the best router.

In fact, this solution makes allows all parties to communicate with each other on same LAN subnet. One issue I have observed though, is that the speed of the internet connection drops (from an upload speed of 10MB without bridge to 1MB with bridge). Maybe the best thing to do is to use physical switches.
