Can't tonight, I'm afraid. Had a few hours on the 360 earlier, but now Ally is watching American Idol, & then 24 is on at 9pm.
If you fancy playing some GoW etc. with those of us in the NTHW clan then there's usually at least a few of us online on Tuesday & Thursday each week, around 8/9pm onwards
Static IP...
Go to the 360's network settings, in the system blade.
Change everything from automatic to manual...
Manual IP, within the router's range, & not an IP the router is going to dish out to something else via DHCP (so perhaps cut down the DHCP pool on the router).
Default Gateway - set this to the router's IP
DNS - set the 1st to the router's IP, & leave the 2nd empty [or use your ISP's DNS IPs if you want... doesn't really matter].
Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0
