x-box360 on a wired ics connection

so what happens if you just / can you... straight into the modem.. or do you have a usb modem, but most virgin ones do have the option of ethernet as well...

i'm not convinced it actually sounds like capping.. another thing to do is see if you ip address changes when you get kicked off - I wonder if that is causing a problem, it shouldn't but just a thought.

Michelle:
yeah I can plug it right into the modem, I'm going to try that later, when I don't need to use the pc  :laugh:

yeah I wondered about an IP problem, so I made the one in the xbox a static one, although I did notice that it changed back to auto  matic on its own once, I wonder how it did that, i should look again.

But........... then it would have been doing that the whole time.

How is it that I can check the ip addresses being used - if I go to start - run - ipconfig is it? or cmd and then something?

Michelle:
its okay I've got it thanks

Michelle:
No the ip address of the xbox is the one i put in and the one on the pc is the same one as it was last night so I'm assuming it stays the same. although I'll look when it gets kicked off. 

My son has been playing for 2 1/2 hours and got kicked off just once after about an hour. It seems to be ok for an hour almost everytime at first.

sam:
i meant more the ip of the external connection more than the XBOX, if you aren't playing a game does the xbox stay connected for more than an hour at a time?
