tried setting it up but get a problem when it tries to connect to DNS. I manually typed my IP, gateway, DNS, etc. Cause automatic wont even find my IP address. Anyone have this DNS problem and know how to fix it?

In step 4, use the same numbers and put them into your xbox 360.

If you don't have Vista, this will look a little different but hopefully you can get it...



You probably have a Strict/Moderate NAT also, but don't bother fixing it if you don't know how to open ports in your router. It just allows you to see more people/talk to more people in game.

Hard wire it...

I deal with Xbox all day in my job. There is no substitute for a good old hard wire.

? He said nothing in his post about anything being hardwired/wireless. Regardless, what I said should work.

Ive already entered the DNS numbers into xbox live. I got my numbers exactly where you showed me too, but still says Error.
