Wireless bridge, modded XBox, and FTP issues

The DHCP server on the other side of the bridge or the static IP address
that you have configured.

You've only quoted on side of the bridge, presumably there's another
wireless router to which you are connecting. Make/model/config details.

Likewise, you haven't provided any details on the IP addressing in use.

Jeff will have to upgrade his crystal ball, he's not going to be
happy...

Thanks David -

I'm running 2 US Robotics USR5461 B/G Wireless routers, one LinkSys
WRT-55G wireless router, all 3 connected to 3 D-Link Gigabit switches.
There are 6 computers on the LAN, 4 ReplayTV's, and the wireless
routers. I'm using a DSL modem (Westell) and letting the modem assign
DHCP addresses to all of the above except 2 of the computers which have
static IP addresses. They're all in the 192.168.1.xxx range.

Thanks again,

Scott

Well, if you have similar computers connected via wireless in the same
way the Xbox is connected, and it's not an encryption issue, and the
Xobx works with a wired connection, then by process of elimination, it
has to be an Xbox or DLink DWL-810 issue. Some ideas:

1. Check the CAT5 cable between the Xbox and the DWL-810. Yeah, I
know it's dumb but it happens. Also check the polarity of the cable.
It *MIGHT* (not sure) require a crossover ethernet cable.

2. Take the Xbox out of the picture and try using the DWL-810 with
one of the other computers. If it works, then the problem is in the
Xbox (which I know nothing about).
