could use one today really..

or if anyone can help me setup my mates xbox live?

pretty much his sister has the pc and a router in her room but there isnt an ethernet slot on it.

so we went an got another router to plug into the phone socket in his room, now the router can see the phone line and the xbox can create an ip adress but fails on the dns settings

we rang orange broadband to get the dns settings but it still fails

any ideas?
