It sais It cant connect to my PC. Im using a direct connection from Xbox to modem. Is there anything I need to enable on my Windows PC for it to connect?

I had this problem when I hooked up Live. Test you connection to Live, then try Media connection because I think you need to activate your Xbox on your PC.

Hold up, you're saying you have a direct connection to your modem? Unless your modem is also a router, I'm not sure if it's possible to connect to a PC.

 

 

 

My questions:

 

What EXACTLY are you trying to do. Are you trying to use Windows Media Centre, or are you just trying to play the music off of your PC while playing games. Please don't just say one or the other, say exactly what you want to do and what you think your 360 can do as far as that goes.

 

 

 

Does you internet cord go to a router, then a modem, or straight to the modem.

 

 

 

If to a router, is your computer connected to that same router?

 

 

 

If to a modem, does it also act as a router, and does your computer also connect to the modem?

There's no such thing as regret. A regret means you are unhappy with the person you are now,

and if you're unhappy with the person you are, you change yourself. That

regret will no longer be a regret, because it will help to form the new,

better you. So really, a regret isn't a regret.

It's experience.

Straight to the modem

Im not sure about acting as a router, but my computer does connect to the modem.

Turn off your modem/BT Home Hub/Whatever for 15-20 seconds then turn it on again, leave it for about a minute and see if it works.

 

Test xbox and pc connection. Make sure its your Modem/Bt Home Hub/¬_¬...

 

Turn off your xbox and computer. Turn on your computer first and when it starts up till you can see your desktop turn on your Xbox.

 

 

 

These steps usually work for me. >_>
