1) Plugin the ethernet cable to the xbox
2) Turn it off
3) Turn off your Router & Modem
4) Keep them both unplugged for 25-60 seconds then power them on
5) Turn on xbox
6) Pwn noobs

Well im trying to gte my XBOX (not a 360) connected through my computer.. its a bit hard

[Pandalink]

Only some ISPs will work when going through a Computer, to my knowledge.

[Shifter]

Yeah like Panda said it really depends on your ISP, If im not mistaken there are some help and troubleshooting on the xbox offical site. Try lookin on there for some help.

It might be because you don't have a very large bandwidth or something.


Or, you are actually using a modem and not a router... :trust:

[Dave]

you can only play your 360 on the net connected to a modem for the sacrafice of your PC's net connection.


Do you have any other PCs or laptops in your house, and do u have a wirless network that those PC's are connected to?  If not, you will have to play your 360 with the other PC not connected to the internet.

I used my hub. If you don't have one, buy a hub, [sometimes they're called switches], and plug your internet connection for the PC into the "uplink" section. Some of them come with 4 other ports some with more. Then you can plug one into your xbox, one to PC, one to laptop... That's what I got going on...

If not, just switch the cable between xbox and PC (you don't need both at once?) [If you do, use MSN on the xbox]...

@VMNT
It is a Modem/Wireless Router



@ Others
So what your saying, is that i cant use the computer, [internet] while on my xbox,

[Radagast]

Do you really need to? If you're playing on the xbox, you don't need to be on PC at the same time... You can still use the MSN on the xbox...

if its the ip address click more information when it fails to load.
then if it is on manually search for an ip address change it to automatically search.

hope it works for ya man
