Re: Network configuration problems

Spooky, you really shouldn't have a wireless setup which is serving both the
Xbox 360 and the Media Center Edition computer. Your "streaming" is going
to get lost in the wireless overhead that way. Take a look at Barb Bowman's
Expert Zone column regarding segmenting of Local Area Networks:

In order to do wireless-to-wireless router, you would really need to invest
in a true access point, as most routers will not do two-way wireless
communications.

I am trying to set up my home network in the following way in order to
maintain good internet access and maximise the ability to stream from xbox
360 to my media center 2005 - how can the following be configured to work:

Internet Connection <-wired to-> wireless adsl modem router (1) <-wireless
to-> wireless router (2) <-wired to-> media center and xbox 360

Essentially, wired connection between the xbox 360 and the media center
via
router 2 - this is intended to connect to router 1 to provide internet
access.

Can anyone please advise on how to get this connected up and working?

Any assistance would be appreciated.
