The X box PC website talks about windows media extender and I have tried this but continually get unable to configure extender. I have tried disabling the firewall on windows the router and our keparsky internet security but all to no avail. I have a new belkin enhanced wireless router.
The signal strength is showing 100% on the x box
Any suggestions

This is worth a try as your wireless might use MAC Control as my Belkin Router Does.
First you need to get the MAC address of your Xbox by doing the following -
- In the Xbox Dashboard, go to My Xbox and open System Settings.
- Select Network Settings, Configure Network.
- On the Additional Settings tab, select Advanced Settings, then select Alternate MAC Address.
- Your MAC address is in one of two places:
- If you're connected to your network with an Ethernet cable, write down the 12 letters and numbers under Wired Mac Address.
- If you're connected to a wireless network, select Wireless Information, then write down the 12 letters and numbers after MAC Address.
Now once you have the right MAC address written down you need to login to your Router and select "Mac Address Control" normally under the Wireless settings. Click this and type in the Xbox's Mac Address and make sure you have the allow box ticked and then just click add. after 30 seconds or so it should be all setup and you can test it on your Xbox connection.
