Re: Media Center and Xbox360 problems??



What anti-virus or firewall software (other than Windows Firewall) are you
running? Things Norton (Symantec), McAfee and ZoneAlarm will block the
setup. If you're running any of those products, temporarily uninstall them
and try the setup again.

larrbert23,

Have you re run the media center extender set up. I found that this has
resolved many connection issues. If your LAN IP addresses have changed
you
would definitlely need to do this.
