So i have a wireless router connected to the xbox with a patch cable and the pc is wireless. Its a linksys 54g with speedboost. i am using xbconnect and it will not detect the game. I see the rooms on the computer and i can enter them but when i look to start game it cant find the game please help

I'm in the same configuration, and I don't success in found my Xbox with xbc. It seem that it need that the xbox mac address will be be the same that the router mac address, but I don't success in it.

Connect the Xbox to the PC via a crossover cable and it will work

Look in my signature in the Network Setup on the XBC Help page, Setup E

i do agree with TheMuffinMan........

thats pretty worthless, is that really the only way it will work? Why is a wireless network any different than a wired one? isn't there a way to just tell xbc the ip of your xbox?

The simple explanation is:

When the xbox is wireless it's viewed as a separate computer hooked up, you have to have it wired to the pc so it's considered on the same network as the pc. That's the really dumbed down way to explain how it works, you want the xbox to be slaved to the computer when the pc's wireless
