ken_cinder Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I recommend setting a static IP on the PC and the XBOX, don't let DHCP do it's thing.....it never works properly with Windows, a proper DHCP server is required if you want to do that right *cough* Linux *cough* Set your PC to 192.168.0.1Set your Xbox to 192.168.0.9 or the 9 can be anything really, but just go with 9.

Shibathedog Posted September 13, 2005 Author Share Posted September 13, 2005 you think that might fix it? Ill have to try it. I heard when you do ICS though your supposed to start at 192.168.0.25 and then go up by 5s for each computer on the shared connection. Dunno if thats true or not, because i heard it from Linksys. They have really nice products, but they have the worst tech support ever.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
