Network problem, Xbox 360, laptop Windows 7

Problem: My laptop does not connect to my xbox 360 via ethernet.
I ran into a problem trying to set up my xbox as a test ground for the xna development. My xbox is used to connect to xbox live through my old XP desktop, it refuses to acknowledge even my laptop with Windows 7. I tried a variety of bugs, including the network settings on the xbox and laptop of compensation, reinstall the drivers for the network card and copy network settings from my desktop to the laptop. I currently have unique network cable from my xbox to laptop. No I don't have a WiFi connection at home. However, I have a hub, but I know that xbox network adapters is able to switch so I don't see what difference that would make. Any ideas? Maintaining the xbox gives an error saying that the router is not assign an address id Oh yes the ipconfig info:

Windows IP configuration

The connection-specific DNS suffix. :

Try these solutions in the order. If give you each one a shot and you can always connect, contact Xbox customer service.
 
Solution 1: Check your network
 
Make sure that your PC is turned on and connected to the same network as your console. You can quickly do this by physically checking that your PC is turned on and all cables are in place, but you can check in 'ping' of your console to the PC. Ping from your console, you need the IP address of your console.

 
To get the IP address of your console:

 
1. in the Xbox interface, go to my Xbox and open Control Panel.
2. Select network settings, configure the network.
3. on the basic settings tab, select IP settings.
4 enter the number of IP address (for example, 192.168.1.9). You can leave the network settings area, but leave your console.
 
Ping on your console from your PC:
 
1. If it is off, turn on the Windows Media Center computer.
2. click on start, run, then type CMD and press ENTER.
3. at the command prompt, type PING and the IP your writing (for example, PING 192.168.1.9), and then press ENTER.
4. If you see a series of replies, then your PC 'sees' your console. If you see a series of replies "Request timed" out, then it cannot find your console.
 
Again, make sure your console or PC are connected to the same network.
 
Solution 2: Check your PC firewall

 
Your PC can block your console to connect by using a firewall to filter traffic by blocking ports. You will need to open some ports to connect to your PC.
 
* Learn how to open ports in the firewall Windows 7 : http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-a-port-in-Windows-Firewall

  • Gamepad Xbox 360 for Windows pc freezing when the vibration is enabled

    Anyone know a fix for this, whenever I have the vibration turned on for any game using the controller Xbox 360 for Windows (by cable), it freezes the game and I can't get my PC to respond again by disconnecting the controller.

    This occurs if the game supports natively the 360 controller or not.

    Games question until now:

    Dead Space
    Dead Space 2
    LIMBO
    Tomb Raider: Legend

    Deactivation of the vibration in one of these games feature solves the problem, but does anyone know a solution where I'd be able to use the vibration?

    The problem you are experiencing may be caused by the power of the amount needed when the vibration is enabled. I had the problem on my old PC, that when I used my controller, my sound would play as the speakers had holes in them and that the game would freeze-freeze-start. The Xbox 360 controllers use 500mA, which is over the limit that provides a USB port. With this audio device, a keyboard and a mouse together via a USB port, which is an aspiration constant quite heavy on the USB supply rail.
    I fixed it by getting a small USB 7 port hub which is outwardly the power (this is important) and plug my controller. This way he can draw the entire, there need without slipping down the USB ports attached to the motherboard. Just be sure it's a hub with an external power supply.

  • Sync problems Xbox 360 wireless receiver for Windows and the controller (Windows XP, SP3)

    I'm having trouble connecting my controller to the wireless receiver. I use XP, Service Pack 3, 32-bit. I read dozens of help sites for help, but none has my same circumstances. The most common suggestion was to look at the driver for the receiver appears as a device not recognized. I checked the Device Manager and the receiver is recognized and does not appear as device not recognized. My controller does not appear in Device Manager as a new group named Microsoft Common Controller for Windows class, on Xbox 360 Controller for Windows. My controller syncs perfectly with my console, and functions very well also. I also downloaded the file Microsoft Xbox 360 accessories of the Microsoft hardware Web site, such as recommended by many establishments but do not know how file functions. A last help, my receiver is genuine and not fake with the XBCD holographic logo.

  • Xbox 360 and Windows Media Center interfere with the operation of the Vista computer.

    Since the implementation of an Xbox 360 for the family to use, turning power switch and return to the dashboard caused Windows Media Center on the laptop family to turn on automatically, which, in some cases, interrupts programs and blocks computer. Sometimes the computer will be same turns on automatically when the XBox is turned on.

    I've done everything I can think of to stop the problem, including 'disconnect' XBox WMC in the "Uninstall" the XBox and the XBox settings in the settings of WMC. I do not anticipate using WMC in the near future, I just want to stop this crazy to happen.

    Thanks in advance for any help and please ask if you need more information on my problem.

    Hello ebduhamel,

    1. what type of connection you have between the computer and the Xbox, it's a cable or a wireless connection?

    2. is it to wake up the computer from standby or everything just stops?

    I suggest you try the steps below and check if you have the same problem.

    This could be possible only if media sharing is enabled on your computer.

    I suggest that you turn off media sharing and make sure you always have the same question:

    a. click the arrow below the Library tab, and then click media sharing.

    b. turn off media to find that others share and share my media to check boxes, and then click OK.

    By clicking OK, you confirm that you want to turn off sharing for yourself. You will also be asked if you want to turn off sharing for everyone who uses this computer. Note that if you let one of the selected check boxes, some sharing services may continue to run in the background.

    c. When you are prompted to turn off sharing for everyone who uses the computer, follow these steps:

    To make your changes apply to all users of your computer (including yourself), click Yes.

  • E-mail/password reset for an xbox 360. Windows Live support is me misleading to their moderators, etc. I need some help here!

    I need a password reset on an old e-mail account linked to my xbox 360. (the enamel of related Xbox Live account). However after going around in circles with the xbox and Windows Live support person will help me. I have provided more than enough evidence that its me (old/new address, debit card info AND xbox console ID AND serial number for information). And I am NOT to START a NEW GAMERTAG due the fact that I have spent money under my current gamertag. Now they are misleading me to the moderators of Windows with this problem. So now what?

    E-mail bellsouth.net and its related help/support page has since been purchased, reformatted and dissolved for their new name like ATnT. Their support tech/operators won't help me as well since it is a problem of bellsouth and not an ATnT. But the email is bellsouth.

    I can't do any kind of password reset because I forgot my secret question answer. A mistake in good faith, but one that keeps this issue to be resolved. I have provided a list of answers to him but still no help and I keep getting turned down and rejected.

    Windows answers forums are for technical problems and we do not have any control over the resets password for all Windows, XBOX and Windows LIve accounts.

    You will need to contact Windows Live Support as Kim said.
