    Wireless is dead....

    for now, I will not be on XBL, though I said it was fixed this morning, it is once again screwed up and I now have to wait for Linksys to send me a new router. I hope to be back on by the end of the week. Can anyone suggest a better router?

    I got a Linksys E1000 from the company for 69.99, but upon review I should've asked for the E200), because this one is said to connect to gaming consoles, whereas the E1000 didn't mention it connects to gaming consoles (I.E. XBOX 360)

    As long as you open the right ports you should be fine. Had to do that to mine and it is not a "gaming router".

    I searched online and figured it out how to do it. Depends on the router you have now. Basically you have to log into your modem, go to the firewall setting I believe it was and make a new rule for the firewall. Open port 80 and another one. Umm can't really remember to much else. Any of the techies here can answer better I'm sure. Just go to Google type in your router name and open NAT. You should find some info in there. So I couldn't really give you a whole answer.

    I keep losing my connection to my router with the 360 and this morning I bought a Ethernet Bridge from Linksys, and with that, I can make my desktop wireless and my laptop in my room the central hub of the entire network, and then run an ethernet cable from the router to my 360, so hopefully this'll all work out come monday or tuesday and I'll be ready to go at it again, or just keep the hub downstairs and have my 360 run on XBL through the bridge

    How big is your house? An ethernet bridge will work but man that really is almost unecessary if you dont live in a mansion size house.. Pm me specific info and we will troubleshoot this..

    I shall be offline for the foreseeable future as I await the arrival of either the Linksys E3000 or I go into Staples and buy the netgear N600.

    Which one is better
