Ok basically my set up is as follows

http://www.gliffy.com/go/publish/4632290/

Everytime my Raspberry Pi tries to connect to the PC to access video files my connection to xbox live gets kicked out while playing xbox360. I wondered if it had to do with the router im using as a switch or possibly has to do with the AC power to Ethernet Adapters that send the network over the power lines. can someone help me fix this problem

have a small Ethernet network based around a hardware router. Can I use a second router to expand the network?
You certainly don't need a router to connect more computers to your network--just a switch or hub uplinked into one of the router's ports will do. But if you have an old router with built-in switch lying around, all you need to do is shut off its built-in DHCP server and set its IP address so that it's in the same Class C range as the addresses being served by the main router, but outside its DHCP server range.
For example, if your main router has an address of 192.168.1.1 and its DHCP server is set to lease addresses from 192.168.1.10 to 192.168.1.50, set the "retired" router to 192.168.1.254.
Make sure you use only the "retired" router's LAN ports for connecting your additional computers. You'll also need to use one of the "retired" router's LAN ports to connect to one of your main router's ports. Use a crossover cable to do this unless one of the routers has uplink capability.
If the "retired" router has a built-in print server, you can still use it, too. You'll be able to reach it at the new IP address that you've assigned to ol' faithful.

I'm going to go try a few things on here listed. everything has been working like internet and file sharing and everything without a crossover cable from the main router to the router acting as a switch. I'm pretty sure I already turned the DHCP off otherwise I wouldn't even be able to connect to the internet and also I should check to see if the IP address of the switch is different than that of the main router. When i get time I will go check these things. but if anyone can think of something please let me know. it gets annoying trying to play but getting kicked off all the time when the raspberry pi connects to the PC
