Help with connecting 360 to live wirelessly Mac Problem?

[Kejoriv]

After almost 2 hours of trying many things and searching online, I am at a loss...

I am trying to connect my 360 to Live using the 360 wireless adapter.
I have Comcast cable internet.

My mac book is connected to the Dlink wireless router.
My macbook can get on the internet, but my 360 can not get onto Live.
I keep getting a IP problem when I test my settings in network settings on my 360.
The green light is lit on the 360 wireless adapter.

Anyone have any suggestions? Is this a Mac problem?

I despise calling Xbox support, I can never understand the person on the other end with the thick accent. But, I will probably will if I get anything resolved with this thread.

Thanks for the help!

It sounds like there is a problem with your network settings on the Xbox. I doubt it has anything to do with your Mac. Can you be more specific about the "IP problem"? Are you using DHCP or static addresses?

Try re-entering the WEP/WPA key - I've seen it sometimes where you can sorta connect but not have full connectivity with an incorrect key.

Also have you tried it wired yet?

I should have added that the 360 is able to find my apple network.

I have tried it wired = doesnt work either
I believe the default WEP/WPA key for my dlink router is 0000000000. So that is what I entered on the 360. That key is what it reads when I log into my router.

Any other suggestions? Thanks for the help.

Yes, When I go into network settings on the 360 and test the XBox live connection, it never gets passed the IP section. It always says error.

I am using DHCP, I believe. It is what Microsoft recommends to connect

Thanks for the help. Suggestions?

Personally, I just assigned the 360 a static IP and tossed it in the DMZ. If you don't mind it being outside the firewall, might be worth a shot just to get you running.

What is the DMZ?
Thanks for this help.

I might have found the reason, where do I enter on the 360 the password to connect to my router to get on Live?

Now my macbook cant connect online when its hooked up to the router.
God, Im freakin computer stuupid!
Thanks for the help.
Looks like Im on my own with this, soo many things it can be.
