my network consists of a linksys wireless router...a computer directly connected to it via cat 5...and a d-link di-604 wired router...on the wired router is my x-box...ps2 and pc...and the router is connected with a wireless bridge to communicate with the wireless router...both routers are x-box live compatible...

so anyways I turn it on...and connect...I try to join a game it then says it can't connect with x-box live so I launch the troubleshooter...it goes though...cables connected...dns found and so on...but it fails the last test (doesn't say whawt it is)...and just says can't connect to x-box live...so I disconnect the x-box from the router and hook it up directly to the wireless bridge...after that it works fine...so obviously the problem lies with the d-link router...all other online games work fine (pc games and ps2 games)...got the latest firmware...but not sure what to do after that...

Is DHCP turned off on the wired router? Do you really need two routers? I would just use the linksys if possible.

yes I need two routers...I don't feel like spending another $50 for a wireless bridge...

anyways I fixed it...I upgraded the firmware and made it operate at 10mbps instead of 100mbps
