If you're using a router (which I'm assuming is a 4-port router), why not just plug the two computers and X-Box directly into it? If this is the case, you could set each machine with an address in the 192.168.0.xxx range, and they'd be usable independent of the other machines (this would include the X-Box).

Or is it more of an ethernet-modem, with just the one ethernet port? If this is the case, I'm not sure you can proxy an X-Box connection through another computer (I'm sure it'd be possible, but you'd need (at the least) a program on the PC that would support port-forwarding, so that any X-Box Live packets would get passed straight to the X-Box rather than the PC attempting to process them).

Okay, what devices are you using on the network? Ie. router, switches/hubs, etc.

Hi,

Having abit of trouble getting my comp to share its net connection with the xbox. My comp is connected to the Wireless network but am having to have it connected to a Static IP Address and have net connection shared through a proxy server :(.

So using a crossover cable to connect to xbox, have managed to get it to recognise the xbox is there, but this is using WinRoute to manage the connections between the 2.
DNS, IP's, and Gateway are all correct - but it wont connect to net.
Manual has told me to to use Windows Internet Connection but it sets to a specific IP which is 192.168.0.1 but problem is my wireless network is connected under that and cant change it without fucking about with the connection and settings which i dont wanna do.

So does anybody know a way of allowing a net connection through a network or changing the original XP settings to a different IP?
Oh yea tryed Bridging the connections and that dont work either :(.

Its a bit complicated and difficult to explain though.

Any Help appreciated,
