Matthew J 152,

I have 12 years sold knowledge in Hardware and Software Customization and Networking. However, that doesn't really mean diddly when we are soo limited on what is going wrong exactally. Without being at your house, all my suggestions could only really be suggestions afterall and may or may not necessarily resolve the issue.

I'd assume your internet hookup is either Cable or DSL. I'd also recommend that you contact that specific provider and have their tech staff come out and help you or help you over the phone. The possibilities in your connection issue are endless.

Could be a compatibility issue with your XBox 360 and the Wireless Adapter.. Or a hardware compatibility issue... Or Other.

Sorry I couldn't give you the response you probably expect, but this is a response you'd for sure receive from anyone else. Good Luck Matthew J 152, hope it all gets sorted out

sorry i cant help you w/ it because you are annoying w/ the w/ sign and thats what bothers me. i you want help w/ something just ask normally w/out the w/ sign. You w/ me or w/out me?
Just look stuff up before you come here im 14 and i set up internet with wireless router with one computer (wireless card) and xbox (wireless adapter) also i encrypted the I.P so others couldnt get my email and that made it harder, i had problems but with research comes knowledge.

Hey Neutrino, check my site out www.pogden.co.uk You can download tools to test how strong you have encrypted your wireless network. £20 says its crackable

i use that on plans for buildings at work, and those plans are to the ny state building and cad standards code, it's allowed for use by professional engineers, and there is nothing wrong w/ using this shortcut.

I am sure it would be. Try to google "Static IP for [your router here]" follow the instructions but put the numbers in your xbox 360 instead of your Pc.
