Xbox 360 WET11 help please

Wyv · 28-09-2011, 10:13

Hi guys

I've just installed a Linksys WET11 wireless ethernet bridge and (despite my lack of knowledge on the topic) I managed to get it working 100% fine with my laptop plugged into it. Unfortunately I can't get it going with the Xbox 360, it just goes to the screen saying I can't connect and suggesting fixes (none of which work).

I read another thread saying it was something about the ip addresses and I suspect this is the problem but I don't really get how to fix it.

I'm using a WAG120N router.

Can anyone help?

Have you looked at the Linksys guide: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.as...&articleid=340

No luck unfortunately. I need something that is specific to the Xbox, since everything else is working except the Xbox.

What about give the Xbox a static IP?

Yeah I could give that a go but don't really know what I'm doing. Do I just use the manual setting on the Xbox itself? What sort of number do I use for the IP?

I have found the following link with some suggestions, it seems to be a common fault.

After giving up for a few months I tried again and finally got this going.

For anyone with a similar problem, I just had to do 2 things:
Manually assign a unique IP address to the WET11.
Manually give the XBOX the same MAC address as the WET11 (from the bottom of the unit),

Now it works a treat
